Over the past couple of days, it seems every time I turn on the radio, I hear the same song. Switchfoot has been playing in my ear the same theme: "This is your life. Are you who you wanna be?"
I thought seriously about that question on my drive home from work tonight. I can safely say sometimes that I'm not where I want to be or doing what I want to be doing. But am I who I want to be? I think I can honestly say, "yes." Sure, there are days I wonder, and there are unfulfilled dreams in my heart. Marriage, motherhood, missions, a career in healthcare. These things may add to who I am, but they can't define me. I am a child of God, and in my deepest heart, I know that He is pleased with me. I'm not perfect and I must constantly strive for more of Jesus. But I am who I want to be...because I am His. Nothing can diminish this identity. Circumstances may sometimes cloud my view, but truth remains. I am His. That really is enough.
Lord, may I drink deeply of You and be satisfied.
