Who Am I?

I think it's about time that we realize who we are in Christ. We have an enemy that wants us to believe we are less than who we are, because he knows that if he can shake our confidence, he can render us ineffective. However, nothing can stop a child of God who has a solid understanding of his value through Christ and proceeds through life with unshakable confidence in all that God has created him/her to be. The best defense against all the lies about our self-image that bombard us on a daily basis is to learn the truth from God's Word.

You’re
Special

Psalm
139:13-18

You’re
special. In all the world there’s nobody
like you.
Since
the beginning of time there has never been another person like you.
Nobody
has your smile; nobody has your eyes, your nose, your hair, your hands, your
voice.
You’re
special. No one can be found who has
your handwriting.
Nobody
anywhere has your tastes for food, clothing, music, or art.
No
one sees things just as you do.
In
all of time there’s been no one who laughs like you, no one who cries like you,
and what makes you cry or laugh will never produce identical laughter and tears
from anybody else, ever.
You’re
the only one in all of creation who has your set of abilities.
Oh,
there will always be somebody who is better at one of the things you’re good
at, but no one in the universe can reach the quality of your combination of
talents, ideas, abilities, and feelings,.
Like a room full of musical instruments, some may excel alone, but none
can match the symphony sound when all are played together. You’re a symphony.
Through
all of eternity, no one will ever look, talk, walk, think, or do like you.
You’re
special…you’re rare. And in all rarity
there is great value. Because of your
great value you need not attempt to imitate others…you will accept – yes,
celebrate your differences.
You’re
special and you’re beginning to realize it’s no accident that you’re special.
You’re
beginning to see that god made you special for a purpose.
He
must have a job for you that no one else can do as well as you.
Out
of the billions of applicants, only one is qualified, only one has the right
combination of what it takes. That one
is you, because…you’re special!
