Ask, Seek and Knock
Jesus promises us that when we persist in prayer doors will be opened.
Create a pact with your spouse, children and immediate family to follow the Lord and serve Him no matter what happens this year.
There is no way a person can grow in Christ and have an impact upon others for Him by standing still.
Do your best as this child grows and matures to convey the fact that God intimately knew him or her before he or she was even a thought and He knows the specific plan and purpose for his or her life.
