What's in a Name

PictureWhen I saw the rings of tulips my soul urge was to take as many photographs as possible.

​Names. ​
What’s in a name? 
Biblically speaking, there is plenty in the meaning of a name.
 Out of curiosity, I decided to look up the meaning of the name Gweneth.  I discovered that Gweneth was a Welsh name. It means blessed.  People with the name are supposed to have a deep inner desire to use their abilities in leadership. It’s called ‘soul urge’.

​I don’t believe the meaning of my name has anything to do with my character. But I have longed to feel blessed, and be fair and  good-looking.  I have a deep desire or soul urge to use my abilities in the service of God. So perhaps I have lived up to my name.

​What’s in a name you ask?
​What’s in the name of Jesus? 
The name of Jesus means ‘deliverer’, ‘rescuer’. It is a Hebrew name.  From the moment Jesus was conceived, his name was to be Jesus, he would save his people. From his birth, his mission was to save we humans from our bondage to sin.  He was to rescue us from our separation from the Father.  Jesus bore many names  referring to his royalty, such as ‘Wonderful’, ‘Counsellor,’ ‘The Mighty God,’ ‘Prince of Peace.’ He fulfilled all these names. His soul urge was to save the world. Not all the worls wants to be saved.  The world wants to do its own thing, its own way. The worls uses its soul urge on its self and rejects Jesus and his saving work.
There is no other name we can call upon to rescue us, to deliver us, to restore us and make us new people. Remember the name of Jesus.  Jesus saves any and everyone who calls on his name.
