Who Am I?

It's a question that's been circling around in my head lately.. Who am I? It's one of those questions that go deeper than mere surface-level answers.. Sometimes I find that I don't ask myself this question enough..
So who am I? When asked this question, I created a small list of the person I believed myself to be.
I am a student. Unorganized, a procrastinator, and very precise. I am a lover of music, and the spring. I love blue, and to spend time with my friends..

I could go on.. I could. But at the end of this list, I've realized I've given no inclination of the person I am.. Because I am not my own. Who am I? Does it truly matter? I am part of a bigger picture. I am a branch on a tree that grows more everyday. It might sound so cliche.. But this is who I am. I am a broken girl. A sinner, who falls short.. A lot. I am a daughter of God. A person who loves people.. Most of the time. I make a lot of mistakes. I've said things I wish I could take back.

Who am I to God? I am His child. I am a person who for some reason, He sees some amount of significance in. He sent His only Son to die for me.. for my mistakes, for my flaws; my sins. I am so grateful to Him. I pray that the Lord will open my eyes to see the world the way that He does. To love the way He does. Because in the end, it doesn't really matter who it is that I am. It only matters who He is, and that I accept the fact that He can do so many better things with my life than I can.

Thank you, Lord.
2 Corinthians 3:17

God Bless! :)

  1. Wouldn't it be amazing to peek just once in the mirror and see what God does? A perfect, pure child of HIS. I thank Him everyday for letting me borrow you for all of these years. What a kind and beautiful God to trust such a person as me with a child as blessed as you. God is good. All the time.
