We have named our baby girl, so we can stop calling her baby girl. After many discussions and much prayer, we feel this is a perfect name for her. Brad announced her name in church on Sunday, as it went along with his sermon. We are naming her after a precious place in the Bible where God revealed Himself as "Jehovah-Jireh: The Lord Will Provide" (Gen. 22) when a faithful man was tested and obeyed. This is the same place where later, God called for a temple to be built (2 Chronicles 3:1) and from then on every sacrifice of worship made there was based on the foundation that the Lord would provide. We've experienced true worship this year for the ultimate sacrifice Christ made for our sin and He has blessed us in abundance. Our faith was tested and has increased, a church has begun, and this baby girl is just the icing on the cake of blessings over the past year. Her middle name is after my sister, Natalie. There is a post about her here. Her name is Moriah Natalie Martin. She is due to arrive March 5th on her Daddy's birthday, and we can't wait for you to meet her.
