MY SPECIAL CHILDREN

Like a bud that dies unopened
or the fledgling which falls from its nest:
so are these My Special Children;
they, I have truly blessed!

To you they seem imperfect,
but to me they're without flaw;
they will never offend me.
I have filled their hearts with awe.

I know what you are thinking:
I could have made them anew;
But these My Special Children,
have a gift not given you.

I made them for you to see in them:
kindness, humility, and love.
For these my Special Children,
I've saved for my Kingdom above.
