My Gifts from God

God has given me many gifts, none that I deserve,

Yet He loves me so much and blesses me this I have observed.

Two of those gifts he gave to me are very special ones.

They are my youngest daughter’s very precious sons.

Both struggled for their lives to come into this world fighting every day till they were born.

I prayed desperately to God for healing and strength to bring forth those unborn.

He answered my prayers and now I have two sets of eyes, one brown and one blue.

They can cut over the cutest glace with a sparkle in their eye when they look at you.

Two little hands, one bigger one smaller,

brothers, one blond one brunette, one shorter one taller.

Giving hugs and kisses, playing hide and seek,

They crawl into my bed to snuggle with me while I asleep.

I remember how afraid I was when my grandsons were not yet here,

Now there are no sweeter words than” Gigi” to my ears.

Before I even knew their names, I loved them none the less.

My heart leaps to hear them say “I love you more” whenever we caress.

God gave me one more special gift, another very special boy.

 He was brought into this world to bring and to give us His joy.

Suffering much for all our sins,

He lived, he died, and rose again.

Thank you God for all these gifts, unique each and every one,

You gave me two healthy grandsons and my Savior, Your only Son.

Children are truly a blessing, a gift our Lord created,

They reflect a part of us, our lives recreated.

We reflect our Father, in His image we were made.

And when He looks at us His pride is so displayed.

Jesus is God’s only son, His image He duplicated,

He gave us His most precious gift do not let it go wasted.

Jesus desires we die to Him, and then we can rise again,

To live with the Father and Son in eternity, free from worldly sin.
