Seven

We have been blessed with yet another beautiful babe!  Elijah Akeakami is so precious.  Who would have thought  we'd have seven children, oh they are such a blessing and I am so amazed at the love of our Father in Heaven who entrusts us (with all of our flaws) to raise these children. With every child my love for each of them grows so much deeper.  When expecting my second child "I thought...how could I love another as much as I do my first?"  It's amazing how our love becomes immeasurable with each child that you have. How much more is the Father's love for us? 

For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.
