Dear Madeleine,
This afternoon I went to the doctor and got to hear your heart beat once again! I love hearing it. It is the highlight of each visit! The doctor says that you are a strong girl! I knew you were a strong one when we had your first ultra sound. You were just measuring six weeks and two days. Since you were so very small the ultra sound tech told your father and I that we probably wouldn’t see much of anything and most likely wouldn’t get a heartbeat yet. But just as soon as she began the ultra sound there you were tiny but strong!! Your heart was just flickering away like crazy as we watched the screen. The tech was surprised, and of course, we were so excited! I thought to myself in that moment, “She is a strong one!”
Madeleine I pray that you will grow and mature and give thanks for your strong physical body, knowing you were created and formed by God! I pray you will appreciate the wonders of your body and respect how God has made you.
Psalm 139 Says,
“You formed my inward parts You wove me in my mother’s womb.
I will give thanks to You for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are Your works and my soul knows it very well. My frame
was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and skillfully
wrought in the depths of the earth; Your eyes have seen my unformed substance,
and in Your book were written the days that were ordained
for me. When as yet there was not one of them. How precious also are
Your thoughts to me, O God! If I should count them, they would out
number the sand.”
How amazing to think little Madeleine that God wonderfully formed and wove you together fearfully and that He made you in secret! His eyes watched you even when you were unformed! He wrote in His book all your days and He has so many thoughts of you that they out number all the sand on the whole earth and each thought about you He says is precious!
Oh Madeleine let the truths take root deep in your heart and rejoice in God your Maker!
With Love, Mom
