Love That Calls You by Name

My dear son,

Listen for your Father's voice calling you today. As the God who created and redeemed my people, I called them by name. Treasure the life you have as someone who belongs to me.

Your roles and accomplishments are not the whole of who you are. Remember who loves you and into whose care you can place your life. If fear comes, lean your heart on the one who knows and calls your name.

Honor the people you meet by name today, too. I will be glad to see the love you have received shape the way you value others. Live today's hours within the love of the Father who calls you.

With all my love,
Your Father

Isaiah 43:1

WEB

1But now the LORD who created you, Jacob, and he who formed you, Israel, says: “Don’t be afraid, for I have redeemed you. I have called you by your name. You are mine.

A short reflection

God reminds Israel that he created and redeemed them, called them by name, and claimed them as his own, so they need not fear.
