Family is extremely precious to me! I have been working on our family ancestry, including the Lorenz & Geib families (re: Tim) and the Huffman and Perdue families (re: me). Tonight I may have possibly found a third Cherokee great+ grandmother! I read where she was given a "Christian name" when she married my great+ grandfather. I love my Indian heritage...as well as the others.
As I consider how meaningful names were to my Cherokee & other ancestors, I wonder what name would be given to me today based on my life...my choices, my values & my example. I pray that when I claim the name of "Christian," I will honor the One I claim to know, serve and love...at all times...publicly, privately, consistently, completely. After all, belonging to Him changes everything!♥~thl
