Reason

* Luís Alberto Alves

You are who you are for a reason,
You are part of a complex plan.
You are an original creation, precious and perfect,
called the remarkable man or woman of God.
You look like this for a reason,
our God made no mistake.

He wove you in the womb,
you are exactly what He wanted to do.
The parents you have been chosen by Him,
and - in spite of his feelings -
they were tailor-made for
plans that God has in mind
and are approved of the Lord.

No, that trauma you faced was not easy,
And God wept for what hurt you so much ...
but was allowed to shape his heart,
for you to grow in His image.
You are who you are for a reason.
You are being molded every day ...
You are who you are, beloved, because there is a God!
