I Still Would Have Chosen You

This poem more specifically relates to my little Riley. But I am so thankful the Lord sent BOTH of my special girls to me!

I Still Would Have Chosen You - By Terri Banish

If before you were born, I could have gone to heaven and saw all the beautiful souls, I still would have chosen you...

If God had told me, "This soul would one day need extra care and needs", I still would have chosen you.

If He had told me, "This soul may make your heart bleed", I still would have chosen you.

If He had told me, "This soul would make you question the depth of your faith", I still would have chosen you.

If He had told me, "This soul would make tears flow from your eyes that could fill a river", I still would have chosen you.

lf He had told me, "This soul may one day make you witness overbearing suffering", I still would have chosen you.

If He had told me, "All that you know to be normal would drastically change", I still would
have chosen you.

Of course, even though I would have chosen you, I know it was
God who chose me for you.
