Made for More

Posted on by Marla

Created today from my garden,
Son, takes his first breath…
Fully conscious, takes his first step…
Worship, I accept…
Hears his first word and speaks…
Brings tears to my eyes and I weep…
Plays beneath the willow tree,
Dives into the crystal sea…
Names the animals, counting them, one, two, three
What love is shared between He and me.
I watch him learn as he walks, then, runs
Without effort this man, my only son…
Skipping stones upon rivers and lakes…
I see the loneliness upon his face…
As he sleeps, I take his rib…
A woman is formed, made just for him…
Love is given and love received…
In the presence of my council, those who believed…
Made for so much more, to him I give.
Life in the garden, where they live.

Ephesians 2:10 “For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.”
Ephesians 1:18-19 “I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in His holy people, and His incomparably great power for us who believe.”

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
