TITLE: What if it Breaks?

I was simply trying to put into words how I feel about my relationship with God and maybe a little of His view back down.
I actually have 3 little boys, but felt the tender father-daughter relationship was a better fit.
Newborn

Something in her eyes reminds me of the way I felt when I first believed in You.

Looking up in Heaven’s Eyes I felt so new,
So unashamed, so… free.

When I cradled her tiny head for the first time,
I promised that I’d never let her go.
It’s how Your love embraced me
when I melted into Your warm forgiveness.

I’ll never forget the day she first said daddy.
My soul was light as a feather.
I couldn’t help but speak Your Name
And give my praise to You.

But when she took her first step across the kitchen floor I realized:
This is where it all begins.

For as much as I rejoice in the blessing
that she can move and walk and crawl,
I will always fear the knowledge
that my precious baby girl
is just as prone…
to fall.
