Why I Call Myself Rebekka

I was reading the scripture in Revelation where He said we will be given a new name. I asked Him what my name would be and He said, "You will be called Rebekka." Hence my handle Rebekka.

The biblical meaning of Rebekka means to bind or bring together, loop of a rope. Hebrew: Tied or Joined. I've also read where it means Fat, Fattened, (ugh) A Quarrel Appeased.

I have to tell you I like Elizabeth better. It means Consecrated To God or Gift Of God.

Do you know what your 'new' name will be? Would you care to share?

Or would you like to share how you got your handle?

Love and hugs



Lord, keep one hand on my shoulder and one hand over my mouth!

Hmmmm, I have no idea what my new name will be. Do you think if I asked God He will tell me? Or does it mean that if I am not given a new name then I don't get to go to Heaven.

May God Bless You in ABUNDANCE

I was already given my new name. "Amanda" latin: "beloved one" or "worthy of love. The old one was NEVER me!

Grace Still Amazes, from the Phillips, Craig and Dean song that I have the lyrics of posted on my blog front page. I get teary every time I hear it! I think when we get home, my name will be Amanda Grace.

Beloved One...I love it, you are beloved my precious friend. "Grace Still Amazes"...I have often said, the only word for His grace is amazing. He never ceases to amaze me, He is awesome.

Yes you read it right. Apparently he's annoyed at me.

I love roses too and I used to an avid reader, I could read a paper back in one session. For me though, it was an escape.

Oh you silly goose, you tickle me. I just love you! You have the perfect name. You are priceless and you are a joy!

Well He told me, I'm sure He'll tell you. Of course you're going to heaven and I can't wait to meet you there.
