God Shares Your Name

“He must become the God of you, the God of . . .” he paused, “your name. The one named John must know Him as the God of John. The one named Mary must know Him as the God of Mary. It is His will that your name be in His Name and that His Name be joined to yours, just as His life is joined to your life and His identity to your identity. His secret Name is as sacred as all His other Names. It means He’s the God of your existence, your life, the God of your past, the God of your needs, the God of your wounds, the God of your heart.

Your Higher Power is your own.
You can begin by writing a job description,
listing what your Power can do,
how this works. You probably will find
your expectations evolve
as your comfort grows,
as your trust expands.
Then you can name your God,
like the fellow who used the line
"in" the Lord's Prayer.
Find your Power, trust your Power,
grow to who your Power
opens a path for you to be!
