My daughter, my sister...

Dearest Keziah,

I could not be more priviledged or more proud to welcome you today as my sister in Christ. From the moment I knew you were growing inside me I have prayed for this day when you would trust Jesus as your Savior and make your faith known to the world through baptism.

Today I am more than just your earthly mother, I am one among many in your heavenly family who has promised to walk with you in this new life of yours. There is no greater honor and I pray that one day your heart will burst with pride like mine when you stand beside my grandbabies as they make the same decision.

Even when your world seems to crumble around you, or when the trials and temptations of this life (and there will be many) wear at your soul, may you daily seek God's face and trust in His grace until we stand together in heaven. I am so proud of you, my darling girl. Happy re-Birthday!

Always and forever,
Mom.

Oh I pray for this day with my children! My prayer since the birth of my first has been for early salvation. I am rejoicing with you as a mom and as a sister in Christ!
