Meditation 3 - Luke 1:11-13

(v. 11-13) Whenever an angel appears in the bible they always have to say “don't be afraid”. I figure it's the same thing with God revealing His presence. We become overwhelmed and frightened. Mostly because we can't understand such a multitude of magnificence. I'm really curious to find out the significance of names to God. Whenever an angel shows up and says you're going to have a baby set apart for the Lord they always say and you name him “so and so”. Samson, Samuel, John, Jesus. Adam and Eve's names both held significance. It's one of those questions I'm excited to discover the answer to. God has multiple names so I know that names are important to him.
