Naming everyone and everything is done so wonderfully from time to time. The Creator and the creatures have their names. A name carries a meaning and depicts a reality. Every name contains 'power'. Calling a 'living being' by name works wonders. Have you discovered the significance and the positive content of your name? Have you happily owned and appreciated your name? The Majesty and Power of God's NAME is all the more tremendous !!! "O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth" (Ps 8:1)! The second commandment enjoins respect for the Lord's name. The name of the Lord is HOLY. The second commandment forbids every improper use of God's name. Blasphemy is the use of the name of God, of Jesus Christ, of the Virgin Mary and of the saints in an offensive way. False oaths call on God to be witness to a lie. The Christian begins the prayers and activities with the Sign of the Cross: "In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen." This is marvellously powerful.(Ref. CCC 2160-2166)
Prayer :
My Lord, I want to, more fully, appreciate the person I am. Help me experience the power in my name. Lord of the Universe, teach me to revere your Holy and Majestic NAME. Let me ever believe and trust in YOUR saving NAME.
