My husband and I had a very spiritual experience with God and Him speaking to us about what we should name our son (3 years before Justus was concieved). By the way, Justus is from Acts 1:23 (when they were choosing whom to replace Judas it came down between Justus and Matthias...they chose Matthais). Brandy Krista,

It amazes me how God leads us. I looked up my name this morning and it's meaning brought me to such a wonderful place. When I was in my early 20's, I was in the car with my dad and he was playing the song Amazing Grace. We got into a conversation about how much we loved that song. A few months later for my birthday, I received a cassette tape titled 'Many Graces'. My father had gathered every version of Amazing Grace that he could find: opera, country western, jazz, rock and roll,etc. After I listened to a full side of this tape, he asked me to turn over the tape for a surprise. On the other side, was his version of Amazing Grace. My dad can only sing one note, but he sings it beautifully and I listened to him sing that song in his one note weeping from joy and feeling so loved. My dad then proceeded to tell me memories he had of me as a child. My dad was not demonstrative in his love as I grew up. To this day, he remains very stoic, but for some reason God spoke to his heart and he gave me a gift that I will treasure forever. I learned today that my name means Grace. It's funny because my focus of late has been on grace and I've been struggling with it. Once again, thank you for your inspirational words. Nancy Hi Krista,

I had forgotten so I googled my name and this is what I found. Patricia means "noble one" which is very fitting Biblically because I belong to the KING. Patricia is of Latin orgin and was a VERY popular name when I was born. I love the meaning of my name. Thanks for your thoughts. Love, MOM Krista,
