St. Paul wrote, "At the name of Jesus every knee should bow." (Phil 2:10)

Practically speaking, kneeling every time the name of Jesus is mentioned is difficult, and so Pope Gregory X came up with a solution in 1274:

Quote:

"We have judged it proper to, in obedience to that apostolic precept, 'In the Name of Jesus let every knee, be bent,' we wish that at the pronouncing of that Name, every one would bow his head in token that interiorly he bends the knee of his heart."

An excellent New Year's resolution for all would be to return to this pious practice of bowing our heads each and every time the Name of Jesus is mentioned, and not just at Holy Mass.

Additionally, reverence to His Holy Name can be done by responding "Blessed be His Holy Name" when you hear His name taken in vain.

The Church invites us to celebrate in the solemn feast of the Holy Name of Jesus. This Most Holy Name should be on our lips throughout our lives and especially at the moment of our death.
