Non-crochet Random Thoughts

I had to take care of some business last week that regarded my daughter & her father and I was NOT a happy camper*ugh*

I often questioned why God would have me deal with my daughter's father when he is so off the beaten path and a felon. I questioned what happened with my decision making that I would even CHOSE to be around such a person, and have a relationship with him let alone create a child with him.

Then one day the Holy Spirit dropped into me that it didn't have anything to do with me. My daughter had to have this particular heritage...me as her mother and him as her father, as a part of HER purpose in Christ. Plain and simple.

Now things have worked out that he has NOT been a part of her life since day one except for a short period of time after she turned 8yrs old that ended (because of poor decisions on his part) before she turned 10yrs old. God...not me...has done a wonderful job of making sure that he wasn't around to pass on those bad habits & bad choices that landed him where he is.

He was destined to be her biological father, but not the one to influence her nor to raise her. When I realized that, it just really blessed me that even in the mistake I made for having dealt with her father in the first place, there was still a blessing from God in it.
