1 Samuel 1:27


A verse of scripture found in 1 SAMUEL reads, "For this child I prayed; and the LORD hath given me my petition which I asked of him".

The name SAMUEL means "Asked of God".

What better baby boy name could I ask for?

Our little boy will be known as "Samuel Riley"

I just failed a 2nd IVF and was feeling hopeless. I came across this verse on your site..and it spoke to my heart. I just printed it to put on my desk and continually speak it - I need to take a break for the 2 years of fertility drugs and heal my body, mind and spirit - as they are all terribly broken now.
