What if your name is Pain and life decides to live up to your name and become a real pain? Imagine Jabez, the man in the Bible with a name issue, in a meeting where a political party is seeking a popular name for its movement. Many names are floated, and one is the "hustler movement."

Jabez raises his hand. He tells his own name story, how at birth he was named "Pain" and his experience of a life trapped in his given name. In conclusion, he says, "Life can play strange sometimes and make you a demonstration of your name. This is not everyone's experience but, it has happened to me."

Someone raises their hand and says, "Calling ourselves "hustlers" sounds good and connects excellently with the masses." Jabez responds, "I would tell anyone who has a chance to name themselves to choose a name that has life in it." He adds, "When I look around this table and assess your lives, hustling was in your past. You are people of means. Why you would choose to locate your identity in your suffering and not in your blessing?"
