( 2.5 minute read) Chloe and George found out that they are having a baby. Excited, ecstatic and jubilant, they start preparations for their baby. As they are living in an efficiency apartment, they start their search for a two bedroom place so the baby would have their own room.

Although taking their baby to school is some years down the road, they consider the school districts of where they will move to, just in case they remain at this location when it is time for school. Chloe and George look at each other and giggle at the prospect of having a child of their own. They are pretty excited, proud and a bit scared but most of all exuberant and want to prepare everything just right for their child.

Within two months they found the perfect place with the sweetest and perfect bedroom for their baby. Continuing to prepare, they decide on the colors for their child’s bedroom. The few pieces of furniture that will be placed in the bedroom are picked so meticulously, even their placement is tried this way and that way until perfection is achieved. They even bought the toys and started visualizing how their child will enjoy playing with them. Oh the care, the love, the devotion and the dedication that Chloe and George went about this process. If it was a movie, the audience would shed tears, happy tears indicative of the LOVE portrayed by Chloe and George for their child.

God planned out this universe ever so meticulously in preparation for His creation, His child, you and me. Our Lord prepared this Earth as the bedroom for His child. Our Creator picked the stars, the sun and everything around us as colors to paint our bedroom. Our Father picked the plants, the mountains, the rivers and seas as our furniture. He even created the fish, birds and animals for us, for you and me as play mates. When He saw that everything is just right, He then created us, and simply said, “This is ALL for you, care for it.”

Let us, His Creation never teach our children that this place, Earth, is ‘not our home’. For indeed God, our Lord and Creator designed and meticulously created this Earth, this HOME for you and me to care for while we are living here on this Earth. Thank you my Father for this beautiful and well thought out bedroom, Creation, that YOU made for me to care for. Till next week 🙂
