She Heard Her Name

Scripture

John 20:15–16 (NIV)

He asked her,

"Woman, why are you crying?

Who is it you are looking for?"

Thinking he was the gardener,

she said,

"Sir, if you have carried him away,

tell me where you have put him,

and I will get him."

Jesus said to her, "Mary."

She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic,

"Rabboni!" (which means "Teacher").

Refrain

Love speaks my name and I am found.

Quote

Richard Rohr, from The Universal Christ

"Like Mary, we must somehow hear our name pronounced,

must hear ourselves being addressed and regarded by Love,

before we can recognize this Christ in our midst."
