Who are You?

Psalm 139:14 "I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well"


As simple as this question is it is often the most difficult to answer. Have you ever been in an interview where the interviewer leads with "Tell me about yourself" and you were completely lost for words? That happened to me and I vowed to never let that happen again. The key to knowing who you are is first knowing who created you and why. All of my favorite scriptures flow together to help me define who I am and perhaps that's true for you too. As I grow in Christ, who I am changes daily; therefore, I have to seek after God DAILY so that I can keep up with who He is molding me to be....He is the potter I am the clay only He knows what the finished product will be my duty is to adjust accordingly. Makes sense right? RIGHT!


Your potential is limitless in the eyes of God. The Word says that He can do exceedingly, abundantly above all you can ask OR think. Do you believe that? If so, don't allow YOUR thoughts of yourself to be limited, the Word says in Proverbs 23:7 "For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee". Pay close attention to the phrase "thinketh in his heart". You see in the WORLD we don't think with our hearts we think with our heads and feel with our heart, but the spirit of God flows from heart to heart. God is more concerned about the condition of your heart so that's where He looks for your desires (hence Psalm 37:4). The devil has access to your mind but not your heart! Plant your seeds in your heart then use your head as the fertilizer that makes the seed grow. Yes, the devil will try to inhibit growth but the roots will be too strong for him to destroy what was planted in a place that he does not have access to. The devil nor the world can tell you who you are because God defined you when He created you.


So who am I you ask? I'm a woman of God is steadfastly seeking His heart, His desires, and His purpose. Bearing all the fruits of the Spirit longing for my place in the kingdom. My life has been made available to God so that He can use me the way He sees fit. Everything that I am and everything that I will be is determined by Him and the work of His hands. Perfect I am not, but fearless and faithful I am! Who am I? I am a woman who LOVES GOD...who are you?
