Adam,
In my journey through my world without you, I occasionally get glimpses and validations about me and about us. Today, I found this and was anxious to share with you. I look forward to the day that God favors me to finally be with you. I love you.
She’s More Than a Number
God in His infinite wisdom knew more than man could ever conceive when He created the women, the flower, the Eve. He created her from the rib of Adam and demanded that she do more than just live. To her, He gave style upon style but yet with more compassion and greater finesses, simply because He knew that she could do more than just pass the test. Poor Adam could not imagine what God had placed deep within his side for it seemed that she was a number destine to be left far behind but soon to be revealed in the fullness of time what God had for her was the greatest thing in mind. It seemed that every beast of the field He gave a number, every cattle on a thousand hills He gave an account, every word that man uttered He lent an ear, yet her, He gave the greatest of “Special Assignments” multiplied by years.
The way brought forth beauty that was undeniable; the rivers of smiles and sparkling eyes of streams, the accent and sheltering of her hair which comforted her face not to mention the rest of her that flowed from the top to well beyond her waist. She would be the cradle that would spew forth the heads of states. She would be the pillow that would shelter and sooth the minds of leaders. She would be the guided wisdom that only God could give and yet He told her, “You are more than a number… do more than just live.”
Her prayers broke through barriers and pierced through steel, when she prayed all heaven, earth, and the angels would hear. Words to God was never uncommon she was more than a number. She would be the one that He would call “mama.” It’s the state in which she’s required to demonstrate her status. Her tools were never to be known as her skills to create a hazard. Her style was always above and not just anything would pass for God never meant it to be her position in a social class. She is more than just a number, mistake, or a blunder she is one of the best of God’s wonders. For what other creation or being could be so desire, outside of God Himself was she divinely inspired. For more than just pleasure itself she and her part in history must also be treasured. Her wholeness; her mind, her thoughts, her every shape, every curve was ordered by God to make man see and ponder; life without her would be very, very hard.
