Jesus Calls You By Your Name


I am the good shepherd and I know my own and my own know Me, even as the Father knows Me and I know the Father, and I lay down My life for the sheep.

John 10:14-15

 “I call Him Jesus and He calls me Sonny.”

In the film The Apostle, the character Sonny is a down, but not out, preacher who is running from the law, but not from God. 

The words are true.  Jesus knows our names.  Jesus is intimately acquainted with us and He loves us.  No matter how messy our lives are, Jesus watches over us like a shepherd watches over his sheep, and He will never leave us or forget us. 

Jesus calls you by your name.
