What’s In A Name

That pray I found yesterday evoked some discussion last night. What remains a concerning point is that the pray to our Lord has everything in it that strikes me as very Christian yet the pray was Islam. I don’t know and didn’t care to know enough of the Muslim religion. The little that I was exposed to was all negative. An old friend and recent convert told me that the Muslims thought the same of Christians and didn’t want to give it the time of day for consideration

 

What’s In A Name

 

We call him dad or sometimes daddy

He is called by some pop or pappy

And in the third person my father or the old man

They call him sometimes what ever they can

So many names for someone who is the same

I wonder then of the old TV series that sought to proclaim

No matter how we refer to the creator in Heaven above

A name is but a name once we refer to Him with love

Names in our Christian bible alone are over 20

And we still know each of them refers to the Almighty

Maybe like “The Long Search” proclaimed, we are climbers seeking the top

Every climber a religion, using different tools but heading still to Pop
