Once upon a time there was a baby who was born in the State of Texas. The year was 1992.

Where did I come from?????1HAVE YOU EVER ASKED THESE QUESTIONS?How did I come to exist and where did I come from?

2Once upon a time there was a child who was brought from heaven to earth.

3But before the time she was brought to earth, she already existed in Gods plans.

4SHE WAS JUST WAITING IN GOD FOR THE RIGHT TIME TO COME TO EARTH

5Once upon a time or Once before the time was created and before the earth was formedGod the Father designedthis child in a sketch so that in a due time she would be sent to earth.

6Ephesians 1:3-4 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.

7When the time was right according to Gods plan, the child was designed by God inside the womb of the mother God chose for her.

8 Before the child left the heavenly place to be sent to earth, the Father spent some time drawing her body and forming his person. He imparted with her talents and abilities from His own person so she would resemble the heavenly Father on earth. The Father also imprinted on the child His wish for her life on earth.

9All of that happened during the time the baby was in his mothers womb

10Psalm 139:13-16 13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. 14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. 15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, 16 your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.

11JEREMIAH 1:5 5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations."

12ISAIAH 44:24 24 "This is what the LORD says your Redeemer, who formed you in the womb: I am the LORD, who has made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself,

13 The heavenly father might have said something like this to the baby: Listen My child: I am sending you to the earth now. I am sending you with a reason and a purpose. After you are born on the earth, you will come back to me. We will meet again, and you will be Mine and follow My ways. By doing that, you will find My perfect will for your life and you will see how much I love you.

14 In the right time, the heavenly Father chose the family, the country and the city where the child would be delivered, and sent her to earth.

15For her family and for the entire world that was a surprise. A wonderful surprise!But it was not a surprise for God and the heavenly population.

16How cute!

Every one who approached the child could tell she had her own personality. So cute!

17The child was received by her earthly family

18She went through some difficulties to adjust to this whole new world, but nothing that the heavenly Father couldnt deal with.

19There were some problems in the earthly family as there are in all families, but still the heavenly Father was watching over His baby, because ultimately, He is responsible for His children.

20The child grew strong and the heavenly Fathers traits started showing in her life

21As he grew more, the time approached when he had to make life decisions

22AND THE HEAVENLY FATHER WAS WATCHING & READY TO GUIDE HIS CHILD

23Now is the time for my child to seek Me and find out what My plans for her are. This is the time for her to read the letter I have written for her with all the instructions for her life to be successful!

24Proverbs 3:5-85 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. 7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. 8 This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.

25DO YOU KNOW WHO THIS CHILD IS?

26DO YOU KNOW WHO THIS CHILD IS?

27NOW YOU KNOW WHERE YOU WERE BEFORE YOU CAME TO THE EARTH.

28You know now that you were brought from heaven to earth with a complete package: Gods DNA & Gods Plans for your life.

29FOLLOW THE SHEPHERD

9I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. 11"I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 14"I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me 15just as the Father knows me and I know the Fatherand I lay down my life for the seep. 30WHAT WILL YOU DO NOW? Are you going to trust Him and let Him guide your steps to the plans He had before He sent you to earth or are you going to try to go through life all by yourself and do your own will?

31REMEMBER THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD: I HAVE EVERYTHING I NEED. (Psalm 23:1)

32Psalm 37:3-63 Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. 4 Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart. 5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this: 6 He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.

33MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE TRUST IN HIM AND FOLLOW HIM

34He Has Made His Choice! Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. (Ephesians 1:3-4)

35YOU ARE CHOSEN BY GOD. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.You are already chosen by God the FatherBefore the creation of the worldTo be holy and blamelessIn His sight

46Why do we dedicate our children?

471. Jesus loves and blesses children. 15I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it." 16And he took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them. (Mark 10:15-16)

482. Children in the Bible were dedicated to God. SAMUEL 27 I prayed for this child, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of him. 28 So now I give him to the LORD. For his whole life he will be given over to the LORD." And she worshiped the LORD there. (1 Samuel 1:26-27)

49JEREMIAH 5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations."

Jesus Was Presented in the Temple

21On the eighth day, when it was time to circumcise him, he was named Jesus, the name the angel had given him before he had been conceived. 22When the time of their purification according to the Law of Moses had been completed, Joseph and Mary took him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord 23(as it is written in the Law of the Lord, "Every firstborn male is to be consecrated to the Lord", 24and to offer a sacrifice in keeping with what is said in the Law of the Lord: "a pair of doves or two young pigeons. Luke 2:21-24)

513. It is a Partnership 6 Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it. (Prov. 22:6)
