New Name

A few months ago I had some of my friends prophesying over me and one of them said that the Lord wanted to change my name of Melanie to Melody. I thought that was very entering since Melanie means darkness and mystery where as Melody is obviously a melody of music. I really like it. I changed my name tag at work to say Melody the other day and it just kind feels right. I'm not saying people have to start calling me Melody. I just think that it cool. All though out the bible the Lord would change people's names based on significant life changing events whether it was spiritually or something that would happen. I am at a point where the Lord is dramatically changing me and purging me and refining me. It makes sense that he would change my name as well. Even if it were only for him for call me that. I also decided to get my nose pierced because of this too. I think there should be a physical change to represent the spiritual change in my life. After all that's why the Jews were circumcised, that's why people wear enjoyment rings and why people get tattoo to remember and represent major things in their lives. I have always loved how Abram proposed to Sara with a nose ring. Right now the Lord is speaking to me on how I truly am HIS bride. SO that's why the nose ring in case you were wondering. Chantoll is getting one too. I'm not sure on her reasons,but were going together for our birthdays.
