If You Came Out of Hiding
If you came out of hiding
What would you find there?
Who would others see?
The real you
Your heart, mind true
Your past through all the distance, too
Jack, Our Beloved Son
My heart is so full as my arms wrap around my son, this child of my heart.
He is not of “my flesh and bone,” but by God’s unbelievable grace, He is now my very own.
I think of what Joseph, the adoptive daddy to Jesus, must have felt. Looking into those eyes, caressing His cheeks, and softening the midnight cries…
“How can this be?” he must have wondered.
And so do I.
