Made for Love

“I was made and meant to look for you and wait for you and become yours forever.”
-Robert Browning

After God created the world, He saw that it was good. Then He created man in His own image yet God said that it was not good for man to be alone (Genesis 1 and 2). We were made in the image of God and God is love. We were made for love. To be loved and to love. To be delighted and to be delighted in. We were made for each other. I believe that is why God’s heart is for the orphan and the widow. We all need love, we all need a life witness.

God is at work, filling in the missing gaps, beginning to heal Hope’s little heart. So many prayers are being answered. Hope is such a little love bug. So ready for the love of a mama and daddy. We have been amazed at how receptive she has been in receiving our love for her. How at peace and trusting she has been in allowing us to care for her needs. This morning she woke up around 6:30 and I put her in bed between Robert and I. She was content and happy, kicking her legs and babbling away. This is what Hope was made for, exactly where she belongs. Smack dab in the middle of love.
