Maria is the young girl being held by Steven Curtis Chapman (center, in the black jacket).


This is a formal family portrait of the Chapmans (likely from around 2006–2008, before Maria's death in May 2008). Here's a quick breakdown for context:


Left, kneeling in black suit: Caleb Chapman (biological son).


Next to him, standing in pink dress with large flower: Likely Stevey Joy or Shaohannah (Shaoey).


Center, Steven holding the smallest/littlest girl: Maria Sue Chapman (the youngest adopted daughter, typically identifiable as the baby of the family in these photos).


Mary Beth holding the girl in dark velvet dress with pink flower: The other adopted daughter.


Front, sitting in pink gown: Another daughter.


Right, young woman in red dress: Emily Chapman (oldest biological daughter).


Standing behind right: Will Franklin Chapman (biological son).


Maria was about 4–5 years old in photos from this era and was the smallest of the three adopted girls from China.

Abraham

According to a traditional Hebrew story, Abraham was sitting outside his tent one evening when he saw an old man, weary from age and journey, coming toward him. Abraham rushed out, greeted him, and then invited him into his tent. There he washed the old man’s feet and gave him food and drink.

The old man immediately began eating without saying any prayer or blessing. So Abraham asked him, “Don’t you worship God?”

The old traveler replied, “I worship fire only and reverence no other god.”

When he heard this, Abraham became incensed, grabbed the old man by the shoulders, and threw him out his tent into the cold night air.

When the old man had departed, God called to his friend Abraham and asked where the stranger was. Abraham replied, “I forced him out because he did not worship you.”

God answered, “I have suffered him these eighty years although he dishonors me. Could you not endure him one night?”

What does "living in Christ" (Colossians 2:6) involve? See Colossians 1:10-12.

Colossians 2:6 "Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him,"


"Living in Christ" is also called "walking in Christ" as you can see from this other Bible translation of this verse.

Colossians 2:6

“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:”

King James Version (KJV)


Based on Colossians 2:6, “walking in Christ” means living out the reality that you have received Jesus Christ as Lord, and this walk is described in Colossians 1:10-12 as a lifestyle of bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with God’s power for endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father. The song “O To Be Like Jesus” (based on Colossians 2:6-7) reflects and applies these truths, showing that walking in Christ involves being firmly rooted in Him, strengthened in faith, growing in truth, overflowing with thanks, enduring to the end, never going astray, and continually following and obeying Jesus as a heartfelt aspiration rather than a mere duty. 


Here are the lyrics:


Since we have received

Jesus Christ as Lord

We must walk in Him

We must be conformed

We are firmly rooted

Strengthened in our faith

Growing in the truth we

Overflow with thanks!

O to be like Jesus

To always walk in Him

O to be like Jesus

Enduring to the end

Since we have received

Jesus Christ as Lord

We will walk in Him

We will be conformed

We are firmly rooted

Strengthened in our faith

Growing in the truth we

Overflow with thanks!

O to be like Jesus

To always walk in Him

O to be like Jesus

Enduring to the end

O to be like Jesus

To never go astray

O to be like Jesus

To follow and obey

–"O To Be Like Jesus (2:6-7)" by Our Pilgrim Songs (from the album Colossians: Walk in Christ, based on Colossians 2:6-7).
