You

Of all the awesome things
that our God could do
with His diversity,
He created
you.

From the beginning,
God had a perfect plan
when He created
you from woman
and man.

He, all knowing God,
before your birth did choose
your special parents
from novelties
of twos.

From the genes of two,
He made one perfect fit
and you are yourself
as a result
of it.

Yes, God made you you;
your personality,
everything you are,
and all you are
to me.

That first stanza is a grabber..
"Of all the awesome things

He does have a sense of humor!!! LOL I am thinking of myself on this one.

As always , Bob, you wax eloquent in a masterful way to make a wonderfully positive & wonderful statement of the Greatness of God and His Specialness which He has put within each of us.
I do appreciate you,

Sweet poem, we are all created in His image, and yet God himself is so diverse and powerful, it's just amazing.
