Spiritual Awakening: The Name Game!!!

 As I sat down to write this blog and further explore the spiritual awakening process I kept hearing the message of uniqueness and names. The first song that came to mind was Jim Croce’s I’ve Got A Name as it reminds us that we are all unique in our own right and our name has significance. I sat an pondered the meaning of my name Jonathan, which translates into sent from GOD. I then began to take some action and explore my Hebrew Name Yusel Simcha, which translates into Jonathan The Blessing.  As I began to think about my name I began to reflect on the many things that have unfolded in my life and the work I have been doing to help others since I was very young. I began to realize that the name I have become most comfortable with is Jonathan. It took a big transformation to accept this name and use it as when I was younger I did not like it and shortened it to Jon and then one day it came to me that GOD directed my mother to give me the name Jonathan and I started using it ever since embracing it and its meaning.  In playing games with my name I also began to realize that regardless of how we address GOD and the name we call him by GOD knows us by our name and watches over us to insure that we can create the prosperity that is our birthright.

 Tommy Walker reminds us that GOD knows our name and that he watches us. Some may call this GOD source, spirit, universe,higher power, higher being, Allah, Buddah, Jesus. It does not matter what you call GOD what matters is that you forge a relationship with GOD and that you remember he knows your name and wants you to be successful.
