The Holy Name of Jesus

Note;  This slice was intended for yesterday, January 3rd...Please benefit from it today.

The name, Jesus, means "God helps" The angel Gabriel gave this name to Joseph for the child in Mary's womb because "he will save people from their sins." (Mt 1:21).  The reverence and honor given to the name Jesus used to be accompanied by a slight bow every time it was pronounced, and was a matter of confession when used in vain or as a cuss word.  Using just the name Jesus, can be a powerful prayer, repeated over and over when all we are at a loss for "the right" words. We are calling on him as the lepers or blind did as Jesus walked by.  He would stop, pay attention to them and grant their requests, satisfied that their faith was strong enough to support their calling.  Where do I stand with the name of Jesus.  Is it part of my swearing or part of my prayer?  Holy Name of Jesus, move me to to greater and and respect.
