Reflections with Andy - Don’t Let Grief Change Your Name - Ruth 1: 6-22

from Andy Talks · host Andy Stoddard

Naomi tells the people, do not call her by her name but now call her “Mara.”  This is the Hebrew word for bitter.  In the Bible, your name isn’t just what they call you; it’s who you are. Namio is telling the people she has changed. She is bitter.  We will all suffer. We will all have bad times. But don’t let grief change your name. Don’t let it change who you are. Stay rooted in what is good, not in bitterness.  Don’t let it change you.
