In My Reading

"Now in the Bible a name... reveals the very essence of a thing, or rather its essence as God's gift. To name a thing is to manifest the meaning and value God gave it, to know it as coming from God and to know its  place and function within the cosmos created by God. To name a thing, in other words, is to bless God for it and in it." ~Alexander Schmemann
