Naming and blessing


After Ephesians 3:14-21

One gives us our names,
and that naming implies
family identity and
ownership, or sovereignty,
if you will, from which
later turns into a waterfall,
a torrential downpour,
an antediluvian blessing
flowing directly into
our souls, so that 
the Son of One moves in,
and inhabits, dwells, and 
occupies our hearts,
cultivates our hearts,
rooting, grounding,
nurturing, growing
us in love.
