What’s the meaning of your name?
hey my loves 🤍 I wanna do something a little fun but also… lowkey deep. last week at my church Bible study we started talking about the meanings of our names, and it really stayed with me. my name is Jasleen, and it has Punjabi and Sanskrit roots. my mom is Puerto Rican, English was her second language in 1995, and when she named me… she had no idea what it meant. but years later, I’m practicing yoga, learning Sanskrit, hearing my own name spoken in that language… and realizing my name means: “one who is absorbed in the praises of One God” “a soul immersed in worship” “she who lives in devotion and praise” and what’s wild is that it comes from a culture with thousands of gods… and here I am today , saved, worshipping the One true God. like… the Lord really writes stories deeper than we even understand at the time. and we see this all throughout scripture God uses names, changes names, calls people into identity through their names. so now I’m curious about you 🤍 what’s your first name? what does it mean if you know and how do you see that connecting if at all to your life, your story, or your relationship with God no pressure if you don’t know the meaning yet… you can even look it up and come back 👀 I just feel like there’s something beautiful in seeing how intentional God is… even in things we didn’t choose. can’t wait to read these 🕊️✨
