Mighty in the land

Today Joel was dedicated at church.
We wanted to have him dedicated while
Pancho and Emelys were here and this is
already their last Sunday with us.
Where has the month gone?
I digress...

Pastor Engle chose Psalm 112:1,2
as the commissioning verse for
us as Joel's parents.

Praise the LORD.
Blessed are those who fear the LORD,
who find great delight in his commands.
Their children will be mighty in the land;
the generation of the upright will be blessed.

Oh God, how we desire to find GREAT
delight in Your commands, not only
because Joel (and Katrina and Samuel) will be
mighty in the land and blessed, but also because
following Your commands brings an abundant life.
Please help us to daily delight in Your Word and in
Your instruction to us. Amen.
