I recently saw a movie. The first half of the script was played from one of the character’s perspective, and then the same story was told from the other side. Gary’s message today was confirming, encouraging and pushed me over the edge of imagination… So how about the other side of the story?
“For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.”
Somewhere, a most precious being is created. Along with this miracle, there might be pain and fear and insecurity. But somehow, Conrad and I will enter into that story and change it, and let that miracle change us.
I am at ease knowing that I am not in charge of the whole script. I learned a lot in the last seven years to let go and trust. This time I only need to play my role and walk by faith.
The anxiety due to the roller coaster we hopped on could give me an ulcer, I bet. But I take a deep breath and trust that God is in control, and that He is preparing the way for us.
My dear child, with a story unknown to me yet, you are loved, and you are wanted. I pray for your mother’s wisdom and courage to protect you while in her care. And may we be ready…
