Word-Filled Wednesday ~#104~ Jesus, Name Above All Names

Our dear, long-time friend and former pastor, Tom Sager, once read this during a church program. He was kind enough to give me a copy ~ I think it's a great way to not only start off the new year, but to even keep in our Bibles and read from time-to-time as a wonderful reminder.
