They embody identity, purpose, and relationship. Contemplating these verses invites us to reflect on our own names: what meanings they hold, and how we live up to the values they represent. Further, it encourages us to consider the weight and authority carried by the name of Jesus, prompting us to live lives worthy of being called Christians. May we always strive to honor the names we bear and faithfully represent the name above all names in our daily actions and interactions.
