Emma Grace Via
I’m absolutely blown away right now at the reality of being a father. It sheds a whole new light on being a child of God! I can’t even begin to explain the love that I have for this little girl, and I just met her 48 hours ago! Just a couple of minutes ago, a doctor came in and pricked her heel to take some blood, tears filled my eyes when I heard her crying and saw her pain. If my fallen, sinful heart can love her in this way, how much more, and with what great intensity does our heavenly Father love me and you. Imagine the compassion that he feels towards his children when we hurt, when we cry, when we’re in pain. “See what kind of love the father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are!” Lord I praise you and thank you for your great and perfect love!
We are so thankful that Emma is healthy and doing great. Danielle did absolutely amazing! I’m so proud of her. She has tirelessly cared for Emma over the past 2 days and I am learning so much. I have no idea what I’m doing, but I’m so thankful to be doing it! Thank you all so much for your prayers.
