Named

"Every family in the skies and on earth is named from the Father," Ephesians 3:15.

So. What's this talking about? That God names our last names? Surnames like Jones or Yu or Sanchez or Ndlovu or Singh or whatever? Well, not that God couldn't do it obviously, but, No, that's not what it's talking about. God, Jehovah, YHWH, Allah, Creator, is Father of us all. All our clans and tribes, every one of us humans of earth and non-humans of the skies, have the One and same progenitor: our Father. God. That's what it's talking about. And. That he grants inner strength to us drawn from his glorious riches by his own Spirit. And. That he lodges Christ in our hearts. Through faith. Why? because our Father loves us.

We meet with a brother or sister so named as God's family. And, together, we bow our knees in thankfulness to Him who claims our name.
