There’s Just Something About That Name

Jesus. As the song says, “there’s just something about that name”. For many in biblical days, when they heard that Jesus had arrived, they associated His name with healing. However, the Bible teaches that He is that and so much more.

What attribute of Jesus’ are you most familiar with? I saw something years ago that reminded me that our Lord meets us where we are and knows just what we need and is able to meet that need. Read and be encouraged by His Name(s).
