Your Life Verse

With each of our children we prayed over what we would name them. Nate gave me very specific guidelines for the names of our children- biblical, Hebrew, Old Testament. Yikes! It seemed like such a huge task, but, I believe that God led us to the perfect name for each child. I have asked that the Lord would give me life verses to pray for my kids that go along with each of their names.


Isaiah- Jehovah has saved
Isaiah 6:6-8- Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a burning coal he had taken from the altar with a pair of tongs. He touched my lips with it and said, “See, this coal has touched your lips. Now your guilt is removed, and your sins are forgiven.”  Then I heard the Lord asking, “Whom should I send as a messenger to this people? Who will go for us?” I said, “Here I am. Send me.”

Moriah- God is my teacher, the place where God is worshiped. 
“This is what the Lord says: Because you have obeyed me and have not withheld even your son, your only son, I swear by my own name that I will certainly bless you. I will multiply your descendants beyond number, like the stars in the sky and the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will conquer the cities of their enemies.”
Genesis 22:16-17 NLT
Isaiah 54:13-"I will teach her and great will be her peace."

Zeke-God is My Strength 
Ezekiel 36:26, 27- "I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart.  And I will put my Spirit in you so that you will follow my decrees and be careful to obey my regulations."

Uriah-Jehovah is my Light 
“The Lord is my light and my salvation so why should I be afraid? The Lord is my fortress, protecting me from danger, so why should I tremble?”
Psalms 27:1 NLT
Ury= “Little Light”

Thank you, Uncle Jon, for the great 7th birthday present






Elijah-My God is Jehovah 
“So Obadiah went to tell Ahab that Elijah had come, and Ahab went out to meet Elijah. When Ahab saw him, he exclaimed, “So, is it really you, you troublemaker of Israel?”
1 Kings 18:16-17 NLT
“Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.”
Isaiah 41:10

20 Weeks

Today marks 20 weeks of pregnancy with baby #6. I am so beyond thankful for how good I’ve been feeling & the blessing of this pregnancy. I continue to feel good enough to run 4.5 miles & workout few days a week. I’m enjoying, for the most part, my pregnant body & the changes that come with it.  Thank you, Jesus...I really can’t say thank you enough.  I’ve been on the other side of pregnancy with much difficulty & I’m so thankful for every day that I feel good! In May I was sick in bed with Strep throat and in a prayer conversation with the Lord felt that I heard Him tell me why I was hesitant to have any more kids. “It’s because you don’t trust me.” When I came to term with the truth of that statement, I was ready for another baby. There were so many different levels of fear in this area that I had to surrender to Jesus. What about my horrible hormones, the lack of energy due to exhaustion & weight gain, Sciatica problems, what about finances, a new van? Th...

Quote of the Week

On Sunday afternoon I had the kids doing some chores to get ready to leave for Arizona. Zeke, my eight year old, said to me, “Mom, could you write down a list for me so that I can cross things off?” Haha! I love it, a child after my own heart. Our, at least another one that I’ve passed my sickness down to!  Thank you, Jesus, for these glimpses that you’re helping me raise my kids to be competent adults. Momming with Sparkle,  Heather
