"The Names God Calls Us"
God resorted to name calling first, but in the most beautiful and glorious ways!
​
God knows us by our birth names, however throughout scriptures, God's terms of endearment affirm and reinforce who we are before we ever came into existence.
​
This is a direct indication of WHO we are to our Creator.
​
May we never forget the names God calls us, who He is to us, but most importantly, who we are to Him!
