Just as my mother reminded me to live up to the reputation of my family name, we all need to be reminded to live up to the reputation of of the name of Jesus.

From Philippians 2:9-10:  “Therefore God exalted Him even more highly and gave Him the name that is above every other name, so that at the name given to Jesus every knee should bend, in heaven and on earth and under the earth.”
