7-12

Whenever you feel distant from me, whisper my name in loving trust. This simple prayer can restore your awareness of my presence.

My name is constantly abused in the world, where people use it as a curse word. This verbal assault reaches all the way to heaven; every word is heard and recorded. When you trustingly whisper my name, my aching ears are soothed. The grating rancor of the world’s blasphemies cannot compete with a trusting child’s utterance: “Jesus.” The power of my name to bless both you and me is beyond your understanding.

每当你感到与我疏远时，以爱的信任低语我的名字。这简单的祈祷能够恢复你对我同在的意识。

我的名字在世界上经常被滥用，人们将它当作咒骂之词。这种语言攻击传达到了天堂，每一个字词都被听到和记录下来。当你信任地低声呼唤我的名字时，我痛苦的耳朵得到安慰。世界亵渎的刺耳咒骂无法与一个充满信任的孩子呼喊“耶稣”相媲美。我的名字具有祝福你和颂赞我的能力，超出了你的理解。
