Rename Your Child: part 2

Quay and Rainey are in Florida with D right now. I cant wait to tell them their new nicknames and why we are going to speak in faith to each other.

Abram was old, great grand-father old, and had never been a dad. He and his wife wanted kids more than anything. Of course she too was grannyish so their circumstances were the kind that didnt leave much room for hope. God made a promise to Abram that he would be a dad and changed his name to Abraham, which means father of many nations. Imagine being a childless person and everywhere you go, church, Wal-mart, the gym, people call you Father of a Football Team or Mother of Many. God gave Abram a name to remind him that the desire of his heart would come true. A name of faith, not circumstance.

I'm going to give D and the kids a chance to name me. I hope they take it easy on me.

Have you renamed your kids yet? I can't wait to hear what they are!
