The Quiver is FULL

This afternoon at church was Baby Dedication. Baby Dedication is a way of affirming in front of our family and our church that we as parents will do everything in our knowledge and power to raise our child up in a Jesus loving home, teaching the Bible, and the love of Christ.

It was a BIG baby dedication with 31 babies being dedicated. Mrs. Angela called each family up and Pastor Tom prayed over each child the verse their family chose for them. Cruz's verse was not really a prayer for him or a challenge for who we hope him to become, but more of what his place means in our family. He completes our "quiver" and has blessed us tremendously. Our verse was actually just verse 5 because I did not want to be a preacher hog (there were 31) but the rest is appropriate and have been verses we have used with all our boy blessings.
Psalm 127:3-5
3 Sons are a heritage from the LORD,
children a reward from him.
4 Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
are sons born in one's youth.
5 Blessed is the man
whose quiver is full of them.
They will not be put to shame
when they contend with their enemies in the gate.






Thank you Nommie, Gandie, Gran and Papa for sharing in our day. Thank you also Alicia or Summer for taking some pictures for me. I do think that some of my friends should have said something to me about the look I was trying to pull off... thanks PT for letting me hide behind you in the pictures.
