  1. We believed the Lord gave us this baby and He asked us to name our son Nahum if we had a son. We didn’t find out the gender until he was born.
    Nahum means comforter, and after trying to have children for 7 years and God gave us a pregnancy with no fertility work or drugs, we believe He has given us Nahum to comfort us.
