Every single one of us was intentionally created by God, formed in our mother’s womb with a divine purpose. Some of us are here to create, others to learn, to teach, to dance, or to sing. We all possess a unique beauty within us, designed to be used.

As children of God, we were designed for a relationship with Him—to love Him and to be profoundly loved by Him.

My Struggle with Intimacy

God's love is often described as a Father's love for His child. For a long time, I didn't truly grasp the depth of that meaning.

When I first accepted Jesus into my life as a child, I remember my sister explaining that I should view Him as a "Dad" or "Father-figure"—but not like our dad. She meant the kind of loving, involved dad we wished we had. Growing up, I wasn't close to my own father, so this concept felt completely foreign to me. I heard the words, but they felt empty.

This lack of understanding caused me to run from having a genuine relationship with God for many years. While I never doubted that He was real, that He loved me, or that He wanted a relationship with me, I struggled with trust and emotional intimacy. I associated vulnerability with weakness. The idea of opening myself up to a truly personal and real relationship with God felt overwhelmingly exposing and deeply uncomfortable. Essentially, I chose to avoid any scenario that required me to drop my guard, preferring to be seen as strong rather than being truly known.

It wasn't until I became pregnant that I was finally moved to look deep inside myself and question the kind of parent I truly wanted to be.

A Shift in Perspective

As I thought about how I wanted to raise my daughter—ensuring she was safe, respected others, expected respect in return, and grew up to be strong, confident, and capable—my mind immediately went to the realization that all these things were exactly what God desired for me.

I began to see clearly the areas of my life where He had been protecting me. I saw how He had allowed certain things to happen—things I hadn't understood at the moment—and how they had ultimately shaped me into the person I am today.

This humbled me. I understood that I was the "child" who possessed only the tiniest fraction of knowledge about the world. There were so many things I wasn't capable of grasping in the moment, but by trusting God, just as a child trusts a loving parent, He led me through.

Like children, we constantly ask "why"—why things are the way they are, why we must follow certain instructions, or why we can't do things that will hurt us. And we get upset when God redirects us as we boldly walk into a dangerous situation, failing to understand that we will be hurt in the process.

I was reminded of this very recently. My daughter had just turned one, and we went to check on our pet goat. As we were leaving the pen, the gate fell off its hinges. I set her down to fix it, and she instantly rushed in to "help." As I was maneuvering the heavy gate back onto its hinges, I had to constantly work to keep her tiny fingers from being squished between the gate and the post.

I immediately thought of myself and how often I try to "help" God by putting myself in situations I shouldn't be in. My interference only slows down His process and puts me in danger. If I would just stand back and let Him work in my life without trying to intervene, things would be accomplished sooner. So many times, I simply get in my own way.

Like any good parent, God will allow certain experiences to strengthen us, all while holding back dangers we are completely oblivious to. He patiently walks beside us even when we storm off "on our own," and He is always waiting with loving arms for us to return to Him.

The Inspiration Behind the Bracelet

The idea for this bracelet came to me while I was pregnant with my daughter, and I don't believe the inspiration was entirely my own.

I had already started my jewelry company as an act of faith (read about it here) and had been convicted of the need to becoming more vocal about my beliefs. The singular phrase, “Child of God,” was placed in my mind and kept coming back again and again. Alongside it came the idea to craft it in morse code. I’ve always gravitated toward simple yet deeply meaningful designs, so this concept flowed naturally.

I worked on the designs on and off for about a year and a half, constantly reworking and refining the concept. But recently, the idea for this particular design rested heavier and heavier on my mind. Through prayer and several confirmations, I knew this was something God wanted my full focus on. After a lot of trial, error, and many setbacks, I finally have a result that I am proud of.

Details of the Bracelet

This bracelet carries a simple yet powerful message: “Child of God” spelled out in morse code.

It is made from glass beads, with different colors representing the dots and dashes. There are three colors, each symbolizing something different:

• Brown: Represents humanity.
• Green: Represents the Holy Spirit.
• Gold: Represents the Glory of God.

(Side note: I wasn’t aware of the significance of these colors when creating the design, but I learned it later—and I think it fits so perfectly!)

Beyond the design, our intention is woven into every step: each bracelet is prayed over before it is sent out, with the hope that it serves its wearer as a constant blessing and reminder of their true identity.

Giving back lies at the core of everything we do. With this bracelet we take it a step further. For every bracelet sold, we donate one to someone who has just been baptized. To give them the same gentle reminder and encourage them on their journey.

Purpose it Serves

It is my heartfelt hope that this bracelet serves as a quiet, constant reminder of your true identity in Christ as a “Child of God.” It signifies that you are fully loved and fully known, no matter what your circumstances or what you've done. It is not something we earn; it is something we receive through grace simply because we are His children.

Being a “Child of God” means something unique to everyone.

For some, it may bring peace amidst life's chaos; for others, strength to face daunting challenges, authority to stand firm in their convictions, or acceptance that dissolves feelings of rejection.

Other people take confidence in this identity because it offers:

• Unwavering Hope: A belief in a good future and purpose, even when the present is uncertain.
• Irreplaceable Value: A recognition that their worth is inherent and fixed, independent of success or failure.
• Divine Inheritance: The knowledge that they are heirs to spiritual blessings and promises.
• Freedom from Performance: The realization that they don't have to earn love or approval through actions.
• Eternal Security: The assurance that they belong to a family that transcends earthly life.

For me, it is a reminder of the secure relationship I have, a reminder of whom I can confide in and trust, and whose authority I walk under.

This design is truly something beyond me. I know God has big plans for me, and for this project in particular, and I see the huge potential for its impact. My greatest hope is that as you wear this bracelet, you feel the presence of God — knowing that you are always and forever a Child of God.
