O Come O Come Emmanuel, King of Kings.

"Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you shall name him John." (Luke 1:  13 NABRE)

"She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.”  (Matthew 1 : 21)

“Behold, the virgin shall be with child and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel.”  (Matthew 1: 23)

What is in a name?  In the Scriptures, name and mission are always linked.  A special name is often a pointer to one's destiny.

John the Baptist and Jesus are among the seven people named before their birth in the Bible.  Each proved to be a person of destiny.

If you do not have the sense that the name given to you by your parents at birth was inspired by God, ask the Holy Spirit.  If you still don't feel sure, how about your Confirmation name?  You chose the name yourself.  Why did you choose that particular name?

Come O King of all nations and keystone of the Church.
