6 Year Old Gabriel


This year has been a whilwind and Gabriel turning 6 this year is unbelievable! He was our first baby born in our house in Louisville and it was such an amazing birth. He came in his own way and he continues to walk in his own way.

Gabriel is such a fun and spirited boy. His name means "Mighty Man of God" and he is quite mighty in spirit. He is always learning, seeking investigating. He is a determined boy and full of spunk and life. But even with all that might of character, he is a sensative soul that loves people and life. He is emotional but not overly so. He knows what he is and he will not say differently. Gabriel's mind is always set and he is clear in what that is. This is such an amazing quality in such a young boy.

It has been such a blessing to see God working in this mighty boy. God named this child so clearly and we pray regularly that God would take that might and turn it for God's glory. We are beginning to see that in Gabriel, which is such a blessing. He tells us of the things of God and talks Scripture with the family. He tells us what God does and says. How we see the might Holy Spirit working in his life! We pray that he will be saved soon!


Along with the things of God, Gabriel enjoys all types of learning. Workbooks are his idea of fun. He also enjoys puzzles, reading, good food and a good movie or educational tv show. He is also beginning to really enjoy the kitchen. Recently he has been doing parts of meals including peeling, mixing, pouring and putting things in the oven! He loves to eat! (most things that is) And he will tell you exactly what he wants.

We cannot express enough gratitude to God for this young man. He adds so much to our family and I'm so grateful that God gave him to us!

Father, please continue to work on Gabriel's heart. Please save him by Your grace and show him the way everlasting. Let him be mighty for You and you alone! You are so gracious and merciful. Thank you for Gabriel's life and letting him be a part of the Manor family. He is such an amazing boy and by your grace he will be all that You created him to be. In Jesus Name, Amen!
