That made my day ...
God bless you, Richard.
Moving, thank you.
Thank you,
That was very encouraging and did a lot to help me keep going when I really didn't feel like it. It is amazing to proclaim truth about who God is.
"I bless the Artistry of God for the beauty in nature and in every sunrise and sunset." Truer words were never spoken.
>>>...I bless the Name of God that is above every name in heaven and on earth...
What name is it to which you refer?
A great question!
One could quote YHVW or JHVH, or one could be more precise by citing the name directly from the Hebrew letters. Or one could be more personal and add vowels, so that you have Yahweh or Jehovah. But God gave an even more personal answer to this question, when it was posed by Moses, "'Now when they say to me, "What is His name?"' What shall I say to them?" (Exodus 3:13) And God said to Moses: "'I AM WHO I AM'...'Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, "I AM has sent me to you."'" (Exodus 3:14)
And with full sincerity and passion of His soul, Jesus uttered some of the most remarkable words of all of His many remarkable sayings, "'Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born...
I AM"
