This week I have been reflecting on the names of God. I remember learning when I was a wee girl in Sunday school that the first name God gave for Himself in the Old Testament, YHWH, was so holy to the Jewish nation that they would not even speak it aloud.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
