Oh, God, I ask your blessings on little Noah's life. I thank you for the loving, joyful spirit you have given him and I ask that as he grows, his daddy and I can encourage those Christlike character traits in him and teach him how to use his gifts for Your glory. I pray that you would take his little life in your hands and guide his steps, Lord. Help us to teach him Your ways as we go about our days, that we would point out Your Hand in creation, our blessings, and our trials. I pray that we would live victorious lives before him so that he can see as a young child that You are bigger than any trouble we as a family may face, and that You always guide our lives toward Your own glory. Lord, I ask that he would grow to be happy and that he would understand the true meaning of happiness - a life totally surrendered to his Maker and King. Help Jeremy and I to lay his life before you, God, and give us the grace to accept the hard times that you may bring into his life and the joy to celebrate the good times. I pray for the man he will one day become and the family he one day will lead, if it be Your will. May we train him for that day of service for our Lord. Thank you, for the blessing of being a mama to this sweet baby boy and for the celebration of his life in our family. Amen.
