My Name is Love

"My name is Love."

After Sunday School at MKC (this week we studied Noah's Ark), I had a kid come up to me wanting to hold my hand and swing our arms. She showed me her family. She told me I was beautiful. (I was a hot sweaty mess). "Amesiginalehu," I replied. 

Then she said, "My name is Love."

"Your name is what?" I asked, not sure I understood her.

"My name is Love. In Amharic it is Fiker but in English it is Love."

I thought she was playing with me. After confirming the translation is true with Eshetu, and back at the guest house, I thought - if the Lord God were to introduce Himself, this is what He would say.

"My name is Love."

Scripture tells us "God is love" in 1 John 4.

Have you been introduced to Love?  :)

"If anyone acknowledges Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in him and he in God." 1 John 4:15.

It is only by His Spirit we can say Jesus is Lord.

If you find yourself confused about your moment - don't stay there.  Go back to this verse. Always go back to Scripture and ask Him, for therein lies the truth.  

"My name is Love."
