~My Greatest Gift~

by Michelle (Fresno CA)

I know I didn’t birth you
or get to choose your name,
but the love so deep within my soul
is truly all the same.

God birthed within my spirit
the greatest gift on Earth
a mother’s love for her son
regardless of the birth.

I’ve always had a sadness
Because I missed that special day
but God in His loving mercy
let me see your new birth anyway.

The miracle He did in you
when He saved you from Satan’s lies
I got to sit and watch it happen
before my very eyes!

I wasn’t there for your first birth
as I said before
but your second birth I certainly was
and could never ask for more!

I loved you then, I love you now
and forever it will be
because you’re my son, my first born son
whom God made just for me!

~~Love, Your Mother~~
