November 10 Mathew 1:21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus because he will save his people from their sins.”
The name Jesus is the Greek version of the Hebrew Joshua. It means God is Savior/healer. Many people do not know the meaning of their name. My name Geoffrey means God’s Peace. My last name Schmitt is a variation of Smith as in blacksmith. For some reason our parents did not give my brother, sister, or me middle names.
I expanded on my. James to say I am God’s peaceful Smithy bringing friends, new and old, to the refining fire of God’s love.
It is relatively easy to discover the meaning of your name with a quick Google search. You might do so and then meditate on how it relates to the purpose of your life.
