Blessing the Unborn so Full of Wonder

I bless you

Tiny image of God!

Made fearfully and wonderfully (Psalm 139:13).

The miracle of your unborn life

Makes me wonder.

How can it be?

Tiny cells that know their place.

Tiny heart that knows when to beat.

Tiny toes that know how to grow.

When you emerge

And come into this big earth,

I will hold you close with astonishment,

And I will goggle and gaze and gasp

As you mirror for me the glory of God.

But now, wee child,

I bless you in your secret place

As God works His mysteries

And makes you so wonderful.
