Asher Dell Richmond

Dear Asher,

For a very long time people have named their children with some meaning behind the names they pick. We named you Asher Dell for a reason:

Asher is your first name. This is the name of one of Jacob’s sons; so it is one of the tribes of Israel. We named you Asher for the same reason that Jacob did – it means blessed, fortunate, or happy. It is our prayer that you will be truly fortunate and blessed in your life. Someone who is blessed is blessed by someone else. We want you to be blessed by the God of your mom and dad, Jesus Christ our Savior. We want you to be blessed in life in every way – physically, emotionally, mentally, but most of all spiritually. Our greatest desire is that you will walk with God. And so we have named you Asher while thinking of Psalm 1: How blessed (Asher pl.) is the man who does not walk in with the wicked but delights in God’s Law:

Psalm 1:1 “Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; 2 but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. 3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. 4 The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away. 5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous; 6 for the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.”

Dell is your middle name. This is not after the Dell brand of computers but after your dad’s dad. It is actually your dad’s, dad’s, mom’s maiden name and your dad’s, dad’s middle name and your uncle’s middle name. That being said; we hope and pray that the God of your father’s, father will be your God and that He will be with you all the days of your life.

With love,

Mom & Dad
