When I receive a letter with Dear Occupant on the front, I tend to ignore the letter. When someone calls my name, they usually get my attention. When my mom would call me by my first and middle name, she defiantly got my attention. God has a message, a purpose for each of us. He doesn’t address us as occupant. He not only knows our name, but He calls us by name. Did you hear Him calling you this morning with the plans He has for you? If not, I want to encourage you to spend time with Him now.
Isaiah 43:1 (NIV)
1 But now, this is what the LORD says-- he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: "Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
