I LOVE YOU!
(The view of a baby in the womb)

By: Jessi Dinsmore   

As I sit here in darkness I wonder what is to happen to me. Will she keep me? Will I live to see light? I want her to know that I love her. I want to shout, ” I love you, I love you, don’t leave me here to die. Someone hear my cry!” But as usual I’m not heard. I grow stronger, but I will not live to use my strength.

Most babies fall asleep to their mother reading them a story, but I fall asleep to her crying. Many have died, but I still have a little hope to live. I wish there was someone to tell her how I feel and that I’m alive. If only someone could hear my cry!

It has been a while now. I feel her moving about. I can tell she is nervous. She has been sitting for a while. I can hear names being called and after a name is called I hear footsteps and then a door closing. People are talking about something. She is getting up, she is opening a door. I think we are outside. I am so confused! What is happening? Now I hear nothing, nothing, but silence. Am I dead? Will I live?

Wait. Now I hear whispering and the name Jesus being uttered.

A couple months later…

Wow! She is moving so much! I hear her yelling. Her muscles tighten as she yells. I think she is in great pain. Is it time? Will I die or will I see the light? I start to move I see a blur! It’s so bright! Light, light!!! I’m alive! I’m alive!

Finally we are home. I hear a bell and she says ,”come in”. As I turn my head I see five people taking off this red stuff that has words on it. ” Thank you so much” She says. ” No, thank you for saving your baby that God has made.” They reply.

After that I turn my head back to look up into her eyes. All I can think about is that I am safe in her arms, and soon I’ll be able to say I LOVE YOU!
