Why on earth did the Lord make something like you? There is only one
like you—ever has been, ever will be. The Lord multiplies His delight. He
doesn’t have the same delight in any hundred of the same. He has a different
delight in each unique one of us, and He invites us into delighting with Him in
each one. […] What clinched our Lord’s delight in each one of us was His
baptizing us. He says you are one of Mine, yes, you. My name I put on you with
the water. You are the only one like you, so you can have delight in all My
gifts to you as I delight in your crinkly ears, gray hair, funny belly button,
and eyes that speak like nobody else’s.
