I love names. I love their meanings. I love it when parents name their children with purpose. Love knowing that my name means "Princess," and that my name constantly reminds me of my right standing with God because I am redeemed from spiritual "rags to riches" in Christ Jesus.
This morning I sorted through some Kenya files, renaming specific portraits with the children's names for quick and easy identification.
Oh, what names! People don't use names like this anymore. And I absolutely love them.
Names like...
Farhiya, which means "joy."
And Gift. Wouldn't it be amazing to have a son named Gift?
Or Innocent. Yes, that's his real name. Isn't that precious?
And her name is Rukia. I love the way it sounds.
One day, when I have children, I want to name them with meaning and purpose. Like these children.

Isn't amazing how we grow into our names? I dont want to boast or anything but, my name means "The Rock" and look how God is using me in that capacity.
