In these moments...


I had a weird moment today.
It has happened before.
It was a moment when I was writing my name,
and I started to stare at it and I said it out loud.
Jay-Mee.
And in some surreal way I felt separated from my mind and body,
staring at my name.
This is what I am called,
Jamie.
And in that separated moment it looked so funny
and sounded so weird.
Jay-Mee.
Who is this girl? Or Who is this person?
It's a person?
Who thought of this name, these sounds that you put together to form a word?

***
In that moment I also thought of the person I AM.
The person God created.
With purpose.
A human being existing in this marvelous world He created.
A person out of a gazillion.
He loves me.
He's the God who has all things and still wants ME!

So true. You were beautifully and wonderfully made! He created you for marvelous things and he has given you a purpose. This earth wouldn't be the same without Jamie!

And I love you too!
