Packages of Love

Wrapped with God's bountiful love* Mom's gift exudes grace Dad carries puppy inside Revealing champ's face Sis brings mirth-filled toy For special child's milestone day Packed to spark blest joy.
*Romans 8:38-39 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
