Name

Hello, everyone!
Today, I'd like to share a couple of my favorite songs with you. I have more then two favorites, of course, but I picked these two to share today since they had a similar message.

"Name" by Nichole Nordeman, is the first one.This song is really nice, and it is a great reminder that even though we may have forgotten who we are in Christ and get discouraged, we still are His and He knows our name!

You are still a promise, heartbeat of God
You may have forgotten but He has not
You are not your ashes, you are a flame
Do not ask the shadows, the Light of the world knows
Knows your name

I also like "Hello My Name Is" by Matthew West.  This song is similar to "Name, as in it reminds us that we are children of the one true King, when we forget, and also reminds us of the love that He has given to us. I love all of the lyrics!

Hello, my name is child of the one true King

I’ve been saved, I’ve been changed, I have been set free
"Amazing Grace" is the song I sing

Hello, my name is child of the one true King

I hope these songs will remind and encourage you today! Have you heard either of these before?
Thanks for reading!

He Knows My Name | "I'm His"

Hey! :)

I've always loved the song "He Knows My Name" Here are some of the lyrics.

{ I have a Maker
He formed my heart

Before even time began

my life was in His hands

He knows my name
He knows my every thought

He hears each tear that falls
and He hears me when I call

I have a Father
He calls me His own
He'll never leave me
No matter where I go }

Today I was listening to He Knows My Name by Francesca Battistelli and it really got me thinking. Here are some of the lyrics to her version.

{ I don't need my name in lights

I'm famous in my Father's eyes

Make no mistake

He knows my name

I'm not living for applause
I'm already so adored
It's all His stage

He knows my name }

What I hear from these songs is that I am special in His eyes.

I don't need anyone else's approval because God has already approved me: special, adored, beautiful,

I'm His.

My confidence, my strength, my approval, my life, my encouragement, my compliments, and my love comes from Him: "I'm His"

You are His.
