Regardless of who you are, where you\u2019ve been or where you are now, there is always room at the table of our Lord.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But there was a single line in this video that really caught my attention. It said something like Jesus needs to be reflected through our eyes. In other words, people need to see Jesus in us.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now the only way I know to do this is to be so engrained with Jesus, that He just pours out from us. Our very essence needs to scream \u201cJesus!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So I thought of today\u2019s song because of the way my thinking has gone over the past few days. We must take the name of Jesus with us\u2026everywhere we go! We can\u2019t leave Him where we do our morning devotions. We can\u2019t leave Him in the car with our praise music. We can\u2019t leave Him in the worship auditorium after our time of worship. He must go with us. ALL THE TIME!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You see, this is the way others will see Jesus reflected through our eyes. When the name of Jesus is always on the tips of our tongues.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Today, think of where you need to take Jesus. Do you need to take Jesus to your office? To your lunch appointment? To the ball field? To school? Then, make it a point to invite Jesus along for the journey. Please don\u2019t leave Him behind. Allow Jesus to be reflected through your eyes. You never know who might need to see Him.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTake the Name of Jesus with You\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Take the Name of Jesus with You,<\/p>\n<p>Child of sorrow and of woe;<\/p>\n<p>It will joy and comfort give you\u2014<\/p>\n<p>Take it, then, where\u2019er you go.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Take the Name of Jesus with You,<\/p>\n<p>As a shield from every snare;<\/p>\n<p>If temptations round you gather,<\/p>\n<p>Breathe that holy name in prayer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>O the precious name of Jesus!<\/p>\n<p>How it thrills our souls with joy,<\/p>\n<p>When His loving arms receive us<\/p>\n<p>And His songs our tongues employ!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>At the name of Jesus bowing,<\/p>\n<p>Falling prostrate at His feet,<\/p>\n<p>King of kings in heav\u2019n we\u2019ll crown Him<\/p>\n<p>When our journey is complete.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Chorus:<\/p>\n<p>Precious name, O how sweet!<\/p>\n<p>Hope of earth and joy of heav\u2019n;<\/p>\n<p>Precious name, O how sweet!<\/p>\n<p>Hope of earth and joy of heav\u2019n.<a href=\"#_edn1\" name=\"_ednref1\">[i]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now, I\u2019m going to give you two options to listen to this hymn.
