What's in a Name?

When I began this blog, I had to think up a name. I chose "More than Conquerors" because that comes from my favorite Scripture verse. It was never intended to be a permanent title, but I haven't been able to come up with something clever, pithy, unique, and yet conveys all the intricacies of what it means to be called as Christians to adopt. Yeah, I know, sounds like it should be pretty easy. :)

I've renamed the blog "Open Doors" because, for now, that is what we have encountered (Revelation 3:8). From surprise reimbursement checks from our insurance company, to finding certified copies of birth certificates I didn't know I already had, to finding that the cost of filing a form was less than I originally calculated (in one case it was $0), we have so far had our paths made smooth (Isaiah 45:2-3). I want to honor God in this moment. It may not last much longer and, when we stumble and our paths are not as easy to walk, I know He will still be by our side, guiding and never forsaking. He will see the good work He began in us unto the end.
