Names

 

Start off, this post is a special post to me and to those who read it. I came up with this one while listening to a song a few nights ago. 

Names are important for so many reasons. Both to people and especially to God. Have you ever thought about not having a name? Names are very special to yourself and to the Creator.

Have you ever thought about the meaning behind you name? I have so many times.

 My name is Hannah Noelle Regier. Minus the Chinese name that I use only for legal documents. 

When I was a kid I never really liked my name and I wanted to change it. The older I got the more appreciative I’ve gotten. Knowing my name comes from the Bible, realized how special it was. With my middle name bing Noelle is the meaning Christmas. Just spelled a little differently. 

So now I look at my name differently and realize his special and important it is. I hope you do the same way. God created you for a purpose and the name given to you, is special no matter what is. 

“A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold.”

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭22:1‬ ‭NIV‬‬

    I love this Hannah. You joined our family just before Christmas, and we were really happy with God's gift to us. We still are.

Holy Week

Happy April! April comes in so many colors as flowers bloom. My favorite flowers are especially the Texas bluebonnets. April I always think of Easter. A time to reflect on what Christ did for us on the cross.  Palm Sunday, when Jesus rides on a donkey on the streets and people shouting Hosanna and ending it with Jesus’ resurrection on Easter Sunday. On Good Friday, is when they crucified our Lord. He paid the price for our sins so we didn’t have to.  May we never forget what He did for us. Even after Easter as the year goes on, let’s not forget what He did for us. He will always be with us no matter what. Good Friday might be a day of mourning, but I hope it’s still a good day knowing what Jesus did for us. Then three days later, He resurrected, Easter morning.  The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.   He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.” Matthe...

A Sign of God’s Promises

Image
 Last Friday evening,  I was driving home from Dallas Seminary and it started to rain and the sun was out. Making a perfect rainbow. I was able to capture this picture from the window from my car (and yes I was at a stop light).  It reminds me of God’s faithfulness and promises that he’ll never flood the earth again and for us in our daily walk with Him. I always enjoy little reminders, especially during the  hard times. Life can be hard sometimes, but God’s faithfulness to us will never end. He will never fail us.  He is with us no matter what.  Just small reminders of God’s faithfulness to us. It can be as simple as sunset over the lake, rainbows or just nature you see around you.  Then God said, “I am giving you a sign of my covenant with you and with all living creatures, for all generations to come.   I have placed my rainbow in the clouds. It is the sign of my covenant with you and with all the earth.” Genesis 9:12-13 (NLT)

KCBI Story

 Hello! Sorry I haven’t posted in a couple of months.  Have you ever had a place, a friend, celebrity, or pastor that has impacted your life. I have so many of those. One of them is my local Christian radio station. I started listening to KCBI more in the year 2021 a year after the pandemic. Over the past four years, the station has made an impact in my life. To the on air team, teaching, and the music. I’ve gotten to hear so many stories from the DFW area, and new Christian contemporary songs and new artist. Not just listening to the on air team, but getting to know them and knowing what their stories are off air. Just this past year, it has been such an encouragement. My family and I have been going through a lot these past six months and when I listen, it’s been made more of an impact. I might not always relate to everything, but some I do. I am grateful for this radio station, the people, and seeing how the Lord has worked and is continuing to do so!
