Today we dedicated Madeline at church. For those of you that have never heard of a dedication, it means that we presented Madeline in front of our church family saying that as parents we will raise her up in a home dedicated to the Lord. According to the Bible, a child is not saved by being baptized as an infant. Therefore, we promised God that we will teach Madeline about Him; in return, Madeline will hopefully make the decision to commit himself to God and choose to be baptized when older. Just like the other four, dedicating Madeline was a very honoring experience for Dad and me.
We were asked to pick a verse for Madeline. We chose, Romans 15:13:
"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."
