An Angel Wrapped in God’s Love

Posted on by Marla

Little angel growing, wrapped in God’s great love,
You’re tiny with a soul, brand new…
A hidden treasure undetected by those who carry you…
You’ve never seen a flower grow or a rainbow big and wide.
You’ve never tasted food that’s grown in a garden or walked by a seaside
Deep inside your mother’s womb is all you’ve ever known
The love and protection provided by God alone…
Sometimes not so perfect are the ones who come to live
In an imperfect world…God will give…
The child of blessing, for those special ones to mold…
Not always seen in our eyes, is the child, broken, we behold…
Love beyond measure is in the heart of these special ones…
Teaching us to love, more than we ever thought we could…
This precious gift that’s given is a gift of unexpected love…
This baby no one wants to have but he’s come willingly from above…
To test the hearts of his parents, will you love me even though…
I may not be like all the rest but I need you so…
I don’t want to be a burden…but if you don’t take care of me…
No one else wants the burden, oh please can’t you see?
I may be imperfect, defected most would say…
But my soul is bathed in God’s great love; he created me this way…
I may not live for very long, but I’ve come just the same…
Will you love me even though I’m maimed, please believe me, there’s no one to blame…
It’s just the way it is…I’ve chosen you to be…
My mommy and my daddy…will you take care of me?
Even if just for a moment let me feel your love complete…
And when my eyes are closed, and my soul takes its flight, I will have known your love, and that life was sweet.

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and am passionate about writing. I hope you enjoy the blog and come to visit often. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 2-4
