wonderfully made

A poem one of the teachers at a school in Soroti wrote and shared with me:

I am Wonderfully and Fearfully Made

You are who you are for a reason

you're part of an intricate plan

you're precious and perfect unique design

called God's special creature

You look like you look for a reason

Our God made no mistake

He knit you together within the womb

You're just what He wanted to make

The parents who bore you were the ones He chose

and no matter how you may feel

they were designed with God's plan in mind

and they bear the Master's seal

No, that trauma you faced was not easy

and God wept that it hurt you so

but it was allowed to shape your heart

so that into His likeness you would grow

You are who you are for a reason

you've been formed by the Master's rod

you are who you are beloved

Because there is God
