Who Am I?

As I think about God, and I think about myself, I begin to wonder, “Who really am I in the sight of God?”  So I began to search the scriptures; these are some of the things God began revealing to me.

He started to show me that it was a personal love relationship from God to us; He wanted fellowship that was there by choice so He created us out of the dust of the earth (Genesis 2:7) and man became a living soul.

Then He began to show me in Ephesians 2:10 that we are His workmanship—created in Christ Jesus that we should do good works. This made me think about what I am doing for God now, and what could I do to be more pleasing to Him?  Because that is what really matters…to be pleasing to God.

From there He took me to 2 Timothy 2:20-22 and showed me that we are something very special to Him.  We are vessels of honor, and the only thing we have to do is set ourselves apart from the world’s ways and live for God and he would use us in a special way.

He also told us in Romans 6: 18-22 that we have became servants of righteousness, free from sin unto holiness and everlasting life.  What a great way of life and an awesome retirement.

He then began to show us that we our joint heirs with Christ in Romans 8:16-18.  Again I say what a great retirement!

And finally he showed me I was Royalty in His eyes as he took me to Revelation 1:6.  He made us kings and priests and we should live our life as so, (not being full of pride) but living as an upright and special individual for God the creator of the universe and the one we will be accountable to at that day. There He will open the book of life and reveal our lives before us that we might give an answer.

So, after pondering these thoughts, I realized that there is always room for improvement in our lives, and that God only wants the very best for His chosen children, but we have to make the choices to be pleasing to God.

That is Who I Am!
