One of the highlights for me of working in a ministry to young married couples is when I get to go to the hospital to celebrate with a couple upon the birth of their child. Today was one of those days.
A couple that Tonya and I have grown to know and love over the past several years has been in the process of adopting a little boy. That little boy was born very early this morning. When I arrived at the hospital mid-morning, I entered a room filled with joy and hope and anticipation. And I was reminded how beautiful the gift of life is.
Here's The Point: As I watched the first-time grandfather (Pops), also a family friend, hold his new grandson, I couldn't help but think that love is really a matter of the heart and of the head and not necessarily based on your bloodline. Standing there beaming, "Pops" couldn't have been happier.
Life, love and family make a beautiful combination.
