I didn’t have the self advocacy expertise to remind her of my actual identify. Mockingly, now I can’t bear in mind her identify!
Ah, however there may be Somebody who has at all times recognized my identify, even earlier than my mother and father named me. He’s so highly effective that He can’t neglect me, or my identify. He has additionally promised to provide me a brand new identify.

besides the one who receives it “(Revelation 2:17).
