Name/Shame: The Power of It.

“…What is His Name, and what is His Son’s Name, if you know?”

Proverbs 30:4

My three books, “Thin Enough: My Spiritual Journey Through the Living Death of an Eating Disorder,” “Cancerventures: Tales of a Diagnosed Woman,” and “IF You Know?” all have something in common with the stuffed pink flamingo I received from a dear friend: the power of a name, especially when shame is connected to it in some way.

Is shame a part of your name? Is it a part of who you are in this world?

The Most High wants you to seek Him; He wants to take your shame.

“…My people shall never be put to shame.”

Joel 2:27

He’s called you by your name; be healed today.

“…Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.”

Isaiah 43:1
