God is Gracious

What does God is Gracious mean to you?? 
I think it means the following ~ 


Gracious means merciful, compassionate, 
pleasantly kind, and courteous. Having grace, 
which is what God has, means favor, good will, 
mercy, and being able to give pardon. So God is all 
of the above.




God is Gracious~ 


We recently found out another part 
of little miss Sophia's name and it has Jean in it. 
When I seen this I almost cried as Jean is my 
Mam maw Betty's middle name. I thought how could 
this be god brought this little girl into our life for so 
many reasons! All of the hold ups and extra steps and 
switching home study agency's. God always has a
plan. Knowing this and trusting that god has a plan for our life has been our 
way of getting through this long adoption process. We now that in gods timing 
not ours our children will come home! 
If you will walk with god in the good times and 
hold on extra tight and walk through the bad times
he will be gracious. You will see his plan for your 
life unfold right in front of your eyes! Oh how 
wonderful that will be!! 

Psalm 86:15

¹⁵ But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God,
   slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.

Sophia means ~ Wisdom 




Wisdom means ~ 

Noun:

The quality of having experience, knowledge, and good judgment; the quality of being wise. The soundness of an action or decision with regard to the application of such experience, knowledge, and good judgment.

Jean Means ~ God is Gracious 

Again Gracious means merciful, compassionate, 

pleasantly kind, and courteous. Having grace, 

which is what God has, means favor, good will, 

mercy, and being able to give pardon. So God is all 

of the above.

This little girl is meant to be in our lives it amazes me every day of the story god is writing! I think we have decided on a name for this little girl. We will be calling her Sophia Jean!!
