As I’m sure most readers of this blog are aware, my wife and I discovered this morning that we will be having a baby boy. Both of us were fairly surprised at this, as those around us had repeatedly insisted that we were having a girl. I, being the trusting type and neither a prophet nor the son of a prophet, had begun to believe such prognostications. That’ll teach me. You can read my wife’s summary of the trip (with pictures) over at her blog.
In any event, our doctor’s appointment went very well and we are happy to report that our baby has all body parts present and accounted for (as far as they are able to tell at this stage) and therefore, we want to offer up a mighty round of thanksgiving to the Creator and Sustainer of life. We have no claim on our son’s life and we are happy to entrust him to the everlasting arms of our Heavenly Father.
In other news, the DG Pastor’s Conference ended this week. I thought it was fantastic. I particularly enjoyed Chandler’s talk and Dever’s third talk. I love hearing stories of gospel triumph. The conference did leave some questions unanswered for me so I hope to wrestle with some of those in the coming days.
Again, thank all of you who have been praying for our little Riglet (Pastor John coined that one). We ask that you continue to pray so that God’s answer to the prayers of many may result in praise and honor to him in the coming weeks and months.
