What does your username mean?

[tryme]

I chose my username because I first joined CF when my husband left me and I was looking for others who had been through the same kind of thing and could offer encouragement etc.

Even though it was my darkest hour, the day my husband walked out the door I sensed that God placed a supernatural seed of hope in my heart - hope that he had my future in his hands, that he had good plans for me and that I could trust him even in the midst of my despair and sorrow. So when I joined I wanted a name to reflect that hope and remind me of the faithfulness of God.

Signing 'Hope' on all my posts was, and still is, a constant reminder and encouragement. And even though 2005 has been the most difficult and painful year of my life, God has been so incredibly faithful and has loved me, gently guided me and provided all my needs. It has also been a year of incredible growth and freedom in Christ.

Praise God for ever and ever and ever AMEN

(Oops got carried away there... see what talking about God and his faithfulness does )

Hope

Great reasoning and name.

I have been wondering what some of your usernames mean.
Of course some are pretty straight forward.

I selected magnify as my user name for two reasons.
First my name, maggie, was already taken.
Second because we are called to worship God that is our purpose.
Our lives should "magnify" His love towards others.

My first name is edie (feminine name - all long e's), my maiden name starts with B. When I was growing up everyone called me edie b, gradually when writing it out it got shortened to edb (just the letters - also, my name is not eddie which is masculine).

I'm a big Detroit Red Wings fan and the 19 is Steve Yzerman's jersey number. No other Detroit player will wear the number in the future and I chose the 19 to recognize his contribution to the team for the past 22 years (19 as captain - which is a NHL record and may well be a record for all sports).

I use the same username for all the forums I participate in. Then I don't have to stop and think, "ok - what's my log-on here?"

The name I chose came to me after reading the book of Song of Solomon, coming to the understanding that tho it it is a love poem about a real human love relationship, and all that is loving .. it shows a commitment in marriage as a reflection of God's love. It's also known as an allegory of God's love for Israel and for the church.

I used to work in a jail as a nurse. When I would call the key runner (the officer that let me out of the infimary) to deliver medication to the inmates I would say "Hi, it's me, Sue. Let me out! Let me out!" The response would always be "Mesue, is that Chinese?" Silly, yes, but after a while everyone at work started calling me Mesue. Working in a jail, I've been called way worse.

 

[MMXII]

Hey mesue we might need a nurse around here with all of us midlifers

A verse in Isaiah

For a mere moment I have forsaken you, but with great mercies I will gather you.

Praise God. I thought God had forsaken me when I was so ill, but His mercy provided relief from the suffering.
