Little Ebenezers

I was always puzzled by the line in "Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing"

Here I raise my ebenezer
Hither by Thy help I'm come

The only Ebenezer I was familiar with was the crotchety old skinflint from A Christmas Carol.  Humorous pictures of someone holding up Old Scrooge, had crossed my mind.  As an adult, I learned that an ebenezer is something that reminds the world of God's help and sovereignty in the lives of His people.  We keep the prybar that was in Shane's belt when he fell 20ft backward off the roof as an ebenezer of God's protection of Shane.  It could have impaled him, but only left a little scratch.  

I have some pictures that will serve as ebenezers.  Here are my little men, just one year ago:

And just a few days ago:

God has given these brothers such a sweet love for each other.  Knox even calls for Grae and Grae can understand his baby speak.  Grae is the soother, protector, and playmate of our newest addition.  Knox looks at Grae with awe.  It is a precious picture and testimony of how the Lord can take 2 unrelated people, grafted to a family by adoption and knit them together.
