Made by God

God made You
God chose You
God breathed Life and
Called You into Existence 

Emma was born in March 12, 2014


I am amazed by God's creation. Emma is so tiny, so small, but she has all the organs she needs to live. 
God has breathed life into her and her existence is a light to the world. 

I have been to my sister's house multiple times to hold her and to be near her. 
Wait...what did I just say, I go to my sister's house just to be with a baby who does nothing but cry, poop, eat and sleep? I LOVE HER though, where does that come from?

She doesn't say "I love you Auntie"
She doesn't give me hugs and kisses...yet ;)
but when she is still in my arms resting I just love it. 

Through Emma I am seeing the Father's heart:
How the Lord enjoys me when I'm still in Him.


God loves us, not because we do things for Him but because that's who He is. 
He is only motivated by love. He is love. 

The crazy thing is that He thought of us even before we were born.
God knew Emma; before her mommy held her God made her with His own hand. 
She was formed in the secret place, where no one could see, where no one could interrupt. 
We were created with intimacy, we will grow in intimacy and this is the place where we experience an amazing depth of love for us. 

This is our life, this is our journey-- 
to know that we were created by love, created with love and created for love.

"My frame was not hidden from You, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in Your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them. How precious to me are Your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! If I would count them, they are more than the sand. 
I awake, and I am still with You."
--- Psalm 139:15-18 ---

God made You
God chose You 
God breathed Life and 
Called You into Existence 

May our days be filled with seeing, hearing, touching and tasting love. 
That in all of our lives we will find how high, how wide, how deep God's love for us. 

Today I believe that I am loved.
