Praise God! For he continues to work in our lives is every circumstance. We are happy to announce that Paula and I (Boaz) have been given a baby boy. We will pick him up in China around the end of May or the beginning of June. Check out his picture in the gallery. His name will be Josiah meaning âfire of the Lordâ or âSupported of the Lordâ and we pray for his place in the Kingdom of the Lord.
In this process of adopting it has led me to think about my adoption into Godâs family.
Ephesians 1:4-6
4For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love 5he[c] predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and willâ 6to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves.
Although I have been adopted into Godâs family, I find myself having to learn more about the love he offers to me. As I learn, I find my relationships improving around me because he also teaches me how to share his love. Today I found myself praying. Lord Thank you for Josiah and will you show me how to receive and express love even more
