I am…

One of the toughest question we can face is “who are you?” I hate when I sign up for some online community and am promoted to describe myself. How do I tell you who I am in 500 words or less without sounding too positive or too negative?  Can I really tell you what I truly think or should I just stick with what you want to hear? Should I be original or just use the cookie cutter response? I used to dread this question until I figured out why. I dreaded it because I put so much stock into how others would respond. I cared too much about they way people would perceive me to be that I forgot the truth of who I am, His truth of who I am.

I am a daughter of the King most high. I am no longer a slave. I am more than a Conqueror through Christ. I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I am crowned with Dignity and Worth. I am loved. I am His!

This is my truth! I was not made to be defined by the “truths” of the world. I was made to be defined by God.

With all life lessons, this one is easier said than done. I know who I am in Christ but how do I reconcile that with who I am to the world. Because the truth is I am both. I am all that God says I am but that includes how the world sees me. It is my job to make them see the light! Now you could choose to define me by what you see and that’s ok, because I will never let your definition take the place of who God says I am.

Please check out the video posted for an awesome song that I love! It’s called “All He says I am” by Cody Carnes. It’s one of my favorite and most empowering songs! Make it your theme song for the week and challenge the way you define yourself.

 

Much love and many Blessings!
