BE BOLD TODAY
I've heard this question again and again through out my life. As a little girl teachers would ask, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" Senior year was a billion times worse! That's all anyone would ask, "What are you doing after high school?" "What college do you want to go to?" "What do you want to be?" The point is again and again that question is asked in many different ways. After years and years of not really thinking of an answer, I finally knew.......I want to be someone who is willing to forgive, I want to be someone who would give up everything for the right reason. I want to be someone who is a good friend. I want to be someone who learns from my mistakes. I want to be someone who is used by God, I want to be a mother. I want to be fearless. I want to be adventurous. The point is the list could go on and on, so I'll change the question. "Who am I?" I haven't fully figured that out yet, but I do know I am a child of the one true king, Jesus Christ. I know I am loved by Him, and I know I am someone who is being led by Christ. Now I am not perfect at all, far from it actually. But no matter the mistakes I know Jesus loves me with a love I can't fully grasp, so ask yourself this question. Not "who do you want to be?" but "Who are you?" I don't have an answer on how to figure that out, but I do know God showed me who I am. Talking to Him and reading His word made me into the woman I am today. If you wonder who you are but don't know how to even begin to figure it out, I encourage you to read His word, talk to Him, talk to fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. It's not all about who you are, but who He is.
