My Journey to God

Unborn Purpose

You were called a mistake,
but you and I know God doesn’t make mistakes.
All lives have a purpose.
To think that you, sweet little one,
would not be allowed to follow your life journey
is heartbreaking.
So…I will nurture you for nine months.
I will sing to you. I will calm you.
I will pray for you. I will dream for you.
I will love you.
And, when the time comes,
I will hug you and say goodbye.
Another mother and father will raise you
to become the beautiful person God has created.
You are not a mistake.
You are their purpose.
