On this particular day, a familiar song (&#8216;<strong>Tu Nombre es Sobre Todo<\/strong>&#8216; by Gerry M\u00e1rquez) began to play. I&#8217;d heard this song before, but this time something changed. Listening carefully, I found myself actually understanding nearly every word! (Granted, it helped that the song was relatively slow and simple&#8230;) And as I considered those words, their significance made sense in a whole new way.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Interested? I found the music video on YouTube, and beneath it you can read my own loose translation of the lyrics into English. (A very early effort, of course, but hopefully still beneficial&#8230; definitely more so than the video would be without translation, I suppose!)<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7XqQgmVeEGQ\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Jesus, tu nombre es sobre todo<br \/>\n<em><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Jesus, Your Name is above all<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nquien todo lo llenas en todo<br \/>\n<em><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You are the One Who completes all things<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nJesus, tu eres todo para mi<br \/>\n<em><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Jesus, You are everything to me<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Jesus, tu reinas sobre todo<br \/>\n<em><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Jesus, You reign over all<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\neres alt\u00edsimo sobre todo<br \/>\n<em><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You are Most High over all<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nJesus, tu eres todo para mi<br \/>\n<em><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Jesus, You are everything to me<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Tu estas sentado en el trono y me rindo ante Ti<br \/>\n<em><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;You are seated on the throne, and I submit myself to you<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nproclamar\u00e9 tu nombre y yo me postrar\u00e9 ante Ti<br \/>\n<em><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I will declare your Name, and before You I will bow<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>While I listened, small nuances from language study began to pop up in my mind. <em>That<\/em> word showed the permanence of Jesus&#8217; position and glory. <em>This<\/em> one spoke of the close, personal relationship we have with Him.

It was no longer a simple collection of words discussing my Savior&#8230; it was a thing of beauty, striving from finite perspective to outline and glorify the Infinite One. The words unlocked for me an opportunity to stand anew in God&#8217;s presence, seeing His Name made great in a language I&#8217;d never before known.<\/p>\n<p>Revelation 7 pictures people of every nation, tribe, people and language standing before the throne of Almighty God &#8211; declaring His glory and singing His praise. We&#8217;ve seen previews of that day before (Acts 2), yet nothing will compare to the real thing when that day arrives!<\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t imagine what it will look like to see God glorified by millions of voices, speaking different languages yet remaining in perfect harmony. I find myself eagerly anticipating the chance to join that chorus! And what a privilege to know God is using us &#8211; you and I together! &#8211; to ensure that one more language is represented when that day finally comes.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_2436\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2436\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2015\/01\/2015-01-18-16.40.11-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"Jordan, Amy and Joel in Seahawks gear!\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2436\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2015\/01\/2015-01-18-16.40.11-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2015\/01\/2015-01-18-16.40.11-768x573.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2015\/01\/2015-01-18-16.40.11-125x93.jpg 125w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2015\/01\/2015-01-18-16.40.11-250x187.jpg 250w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2015\/01\/2015-01-18-16.40.11-339x253.jpg 339w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2015\/01\/2015-01-18-16.40.11-600x448.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2015\/01\/2015-01-18-16.40.11-500x373.jpg 500w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/jordan-husband\/files\/2015\/01\/2015-01-18-16.40.11.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2436\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Guess which team we&#8217;ll root for next week?<\/figcaption><\/figure><strong>Thank God with us!<\/strong> Our coworkers, Don and Chrissy Chubb, just welcomed a healthy baby girl (Ruth) to their family yesterday!

Our good friends Hector and Amy Flores are finally able to head to missions training in Missouri! And yesterday night, Vicente (mentioned in earlier blog posts) married his fiancee, Erendira!

That God would deepen the friendships we have, provide new relationships for us to pursue, and use both to grow us nearer to Him as well as in language ability.
