I Choose You

By Naomie Deborah Tilahun

The Heavenly Father's sentiments to the child that desperately wants to be chosen:

Did you know you are my favorite?

Did you know you are my most prized possession?

Did you know you are the apple of my eye?

Did you? Did you know?

I'm so close to you, and I value our private time together.

I want your time more than anything else.

I love you, and I always will.

I choose you!

You're enough.

You're mine.

Whether you're broken or bandaged and bold, you are perfect for the job.

I choose you!

Be who you are and don't hold back.

You're enough. I made no mistakes when I chose you.

Be honest; be true, because you are needed.

Well done, my enough one; I choose you.
