I always find baby names interesting. Some parents should be locked up for what they name their kids! I saw a website the other day that had a list of the most unusual names. Wow!
Five people named their kids Tequila. Do you think they were drinking? A dozen named their precious one Juvenal (yes, it is misspelled, but does it matter?). I wonder what the middle name is? Delinquent?
Notorious is growing up in various parts of the country. Wonder what he (or is it she?) is going to do to live up to his/her name?
God names and renames people through his-story. If you have committed your life to Christ, then he has renamed you. He looks past what your parents called you, reaching a level of love and intimacy to where you are now "Son" or "Daughter." And he puts "beloved" in front of that.
Let that sink in. You are a beloved son or daughter of the Almighty God, the maker of heaven and earth. He loves you more than you know. He is for you and not against you.
Psalm 103:13 — As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him.
Today I am going to work on living up to the name I have received from the creator of this world.
