We Are Loved

Sometimes life isn’t what we expect, And we ponder on the meaning of our birth, But then God shows us the faces of those who have prayed for us throughout the years, And God blesses us to hear their prayers, And we realize that we are loved beyond measure. And sometimes miracles like this don’t happen, And we have to believe that we are loved without physical proof, We must simply trust that we are loved by God and many others, And in that reckoning, We are empowered to love others, not out of obligation but rather gratitude.
