One treasured soul waited in line for an extended time. But when she finally got to me, she couldn’t find her words. With clenched fists and stiff arms, she tightened her lips and made herself look at me. I stood there for a moment and prayerfully waited for her to speak. Finally, she did. With her feet firmly planted, she guardedly said, “No words. I don’t have anything to say.” I carefully asked, “How about if I give you a hug?” She barely nodded, but that was enough of an invitation for me. I wrapped my arms around her and became instantly aware of something the Lord wanted to say to her. “A new name,” I whispered. Then I backed up, grabbed her shoulders, looked her in the eyes, and said, “The Lord wants to give you a new name.” Her jaw dropped. She glanced around to see if anyone had noticed her. She squeezed her eyes shut and tears rolled down her face as she began to tremble and shake. Her lips quivered as she fought for her words, but still she didn’t move from her spot or speak.
