Hi Nathaniel, I loved this piece so much. It put into words what I have always struggled to articulate. Even after carrying my babies as a mother, they were strangers at birth. I remember exhausted moments in the early weeks of thinking that I don’t even like this baby! But as I fed and cared for each of my babies, love and knowing arrived.
“How fitting to find the self-giving heart of God in the sacrifice of love.”
As a primary/elementary teacher, I see that even the most challenging students become loved as relationships m and knowing is built.
“transforming us from strangers into family and making both of us more of who God calls us to be.”
