21/04: The Name Arrived
Category: In His Grip
Posted by: Luann
It was yesterday during my quiet morning time with the Lord. The naming of this radio program has felt like naming a child. You want to make sure that it is one that can stand the test of time, season, location, circumstances, and be pleasing to the Lord.
Ramona encouraged me to read the passage about David preparing for the building of the temple. She said it reminded her of the process of this adventure.
Wise counsel on Sunday, from folks who know radio, told me that the cafe idea was so versatile and would encourage anyone to tune in.
God opened this door and He has shed just enough light for me to see the next step. These three verses below are the building blocks for the foundation of this radio program.
1 Chron. 22: 19
Now devote your heart and soul to seeking the Lord your God. Begin to build the sanctuary of the Lord God, so that you may bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord and the sacred articles belonging to God into the temple that will be built for the Name of the Lord."
Acts 13:15
...if you have a message of encouragement for the people, please speak."
Romans 15:4
For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
Much prayer has been offered up seeking God. Now we build a show for the Name of the Lord.
If we have encouragement for the people, we speak. The Scriptures provide encouragement so others might find hope.
As you all know, I have been writing and speaking for Proverbs 31 Ministries for years. Our daily online devotionals have over 290,000 subscribers! Do you know what that devotional is actually called?
Encouragement for Today.
Dot was so right. Yesterday after my quiet time with the Lord, I sat in the sunroom with my husband sipping our morning coffee. These words slipped into my mind as if a cue card was resting in my brain:
Encouragement Cafe
with Luann & Friends
Pull up a chair, there’s always room for one more.
Sit down, shut up and breathe.
The conversation is always hot and fresh.
Comfort food for your soul.
First the name, then the tag line. One step at a time He sheds His light.
Please share your thoughts.

Title: Very nice; Very YOU.
I think you should clarify for us a couple of things.
1) It looks like you are set on the title and don't want suggestions on that. If true, please let us know (trying to save you some heartache, and weeding through more names.)
2) It also looks like you want us to choose from the following four possible tag lines.... do you want suggestions on additional ones, or to stick with choosing from that list?
