Find Out the Spiritual Meaning of Your Name

8/12/2015

​While pregnant with Lincoln I read a book called Prayer Warrior Mom and one of the chapters spoke about the importance of praying for your children with the spiritual meaning of their name in mind. For example, based on Adeline's name, the author suggests I pray for God's guidance in her life and for her to be a shining light. For Lincoln, I can pray for him to be victorious and nurtured.

Before reading that chapter, I knew the literal meaning of Adeline's name, but I was unaware that there is also a separate spiritual meaning for each name. After a quick Google search, I came across this comprehensive site for both literal and spiritual name meanings--My Kairos. I encourage you to explore the site to learn the name meanings for all of your family members. If for nothing else, it's just fun =).

Here's what I discovered about our family

Adeline
Claire

Wilma
Literal Meaning


Honor to God
Harmonious

Of the ash tree meadow
Oath to God

Spiritual Meaning 


Blessed to God

Harmony

Under God's guidance
Shining light

Victorious
Nurtured

Protector 

I LOVE Lincoln's name, but my hold up before we named him was the literal meaning--from the pool town...really? I think name meanings are especially important, but at least the spiritual meaning has substance =). And we just had to look up Wilma for fun; protector is spot on since she is the barkiest dog known to man.

BE SMART AND BECOME RICH IN LESS THAN 3DAYS....It all depends on how fast 
you can be to get the new PROGRAMMED blank ATM card that is capable of
hacking into any ATM machine,anywhere in the world. I got to know about 
this BLANK ATM CARD when I was searching for job online about a month 
ago..It has really changed my life for good and now I can say I'm rich and 
I can never be poor again. The least money I get in a day with it is about 
$50,000.(fifty thousand USD) Every now and then I keeping pumping money 
into my account. Though is illegal,there is no risk of being caught 
,because it has been programmed in such a way that it is not traceable,it 
also has a technique that makes it impossible for the CCTVs to detect 
you..For details on how to get yours today, email the hackers on : (
[email protected] < Tell your 
loved once too, and start to live large. That's the simple testimony of how 
my life changed for good...Love you all .
