Dear
Child of Mine,
Days pass, seasons change, and months turn into
years and yet I still look at you as if you were a newborn. Every time I watch you try something new, all
of my fears and excitement return as if it were the first time I laid eyes on
you. The love you feel for a child can
blow your mind. Joy, Pride,
Delight. Words cannot express how you
feel when you look at your child.
So
today, I want one thing for you and that is to hold strong to the truth. That truth is that you are beautiful and that
you matter. "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created
him; male and female he created them." (Gen 1:27) You were crafted with beauty and purpose.
Beautiful is defined as having qualities that delight the senses. A person becomes beautiful when they know
that they are loved. And you my child
are loved. God longs to bring this
reality into your life, Himself. "The King is enthralled by your beauty."
(Psalm 45:11)

And
as you go through life, if you start to forget this truth just remember that
God became man, died and rose again just to be with you. "The
Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, He will
quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing." (Zephaniah 3:7)
Love, Your Mama
