*there's 6 affirmations of faith

I don't talk about faith very publicly. It's very personal to me but I am happy to share these verses that have meant a lot to me since Will was born.

1. in an email from Julie H.:

Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything.  Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.  If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand.  His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7

2. in an email (and gift!) from Julie Beth F.:

William Matthew Dianna...who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made. Isaiah 43:7

3. from Katie M's artwork:
For this child I prayed and the Lord hath given me my petition which I asked of him. 1 Samuel 1:27

4. But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. 2 Corinthians 12:9-10

5. And the child grew and became strong; he was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him. Luke 2:40

6. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be
discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9
