God’s Surprise

Work had been causing much stress You enjoyed it less and less What’s God’s answer, any guess?

Fervently to him you pray Both in the night and the day Wondering what he will say

You trust that God is wise But it was quite a surprise You’re expecting baby cries!

After the initial shock You then begin to take stock Of options it might unlock

It’s gonna be very strange Finding out how things will change What you’ll have to rearrange

So now your due date has come You seek more of God’s wisdom For how to be a great mum

I pray you’ll be so aware Of God’s great love and his care That with this child you can share
