Isabel's Baby Dedication

Isabel- Consecrated to God Proverbs 16:3 "Commit to the Lord whatever you do and your plans will succeed"
Grace- Lady of Grace Psalm 84:11 "For the Lord God is a sun and a shield; the Lord gives grace and glory; No good thing does he withold from those who walk uprightly"

On Saturday night Isabel had her "baby dedication" at Christ Community Church and her whole family was there to help her celebrate. In our church we reserve baptism for a time when you are old enough to make the decision to accept Jesus Christ for yourself. So instead we, as parents, dedicated ourselves to raising Isabel to know the Lord and the church congregation dedicated themselves to supporting our efforts. Bell, Jason, and I stood in front of the church for our vows and Isabel made it through the whole thing without crying! It was a really neat experience. We thank God daily for the blessing that is Isabel and pray that we can be good Christian parents for her. After church we had food and cake at my parent's house.
