Dear Family:
Here is another description of the crucible for you-
http://www.recruitparents.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=27632&whichpage=2
We must share a thought with you that occurred to us during our Sunday school time with friends. We are studying gifts and how they relate to the names of God, to the days of creation, to the tabernacle furniture, to our birthright, and overall descriptions. Today's lesson was on the gift of the Giver. The generational blessing is the Giver's birthright and we looked at Job, Abraham and Jacob and how they blessed their children. For those of you that remember Bryant's 'right of passage and baptism' ceremony, do you remember Tim giving Bryant a sword? While we joked with him about being strong willed, the meaning of his name is, 'strong in spirit' and our blessing for him is that he would be an encourager and his words would protect others. Tim's closing comment was, "Can you see a soldier standing guard with his weapon in hand ready to use at a moments notice?" Was that prophetic? It just hit us that the Marines symbol is a sword. Interesting.....
This weeks challenge will definitely be a defining moment for Bryant.
