This is Kai, he is the new grandson of my dear friend, Nancy. He was born last Tuesday. This photo just takes my breath away. What an absolute gift from God he is. Congratulations Amanda and Raj! I am reminded of the verse, "For you created my inmost being; you knit me
together in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you when I
was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me were written
in your book before one of them came to be"...
Psalm 139:13-16
With joyful thanksgiving,
Oh, be still my heart. I never see a baby I don't want to hold. He is so precious. We are due to have a new little one to hold in March.
ReplyDeleteThat is one of my favorite Pslams...I was reminded of it recently when a good friend told me her son who is 40 and just 2 weeks older than my oldest was diagnosed with ALS.
What a precious, precious little one! We are (happily) going through the births of new babies in our family (. . . nieces are becoming Mommies!) - & I just love the times we have together. In a few weeks - I'm going to San Diego to visit & get to meet the latest little one (she's not yet 3 weeks old!) & I can hardly wait - especially after seeing this photo!
ReplyDeleteThe photo reminds me also of a baby card that I saw. It said, "How blessed are we when they - who are so fresh from God - love us."
