One of my co-worker introduced me to a song that stuck with me. I know who I am by Sinach.
A song that is so powerful the chorus just gets stuck and when I get treated as
a small person I sing it to me.
I know who I am. I know who God says I am, what He says I am, where He says I’m at, I live a life of
favour, I’m walking in power, I walk in miracles, I know who I am.
Yet I catch myself time and time again playing the game of, who face book says I am. Some I post as
my friends and family might get a giggle out of it and the rest is just
such a bunch of crap that I giggle alone.
This morning one came up “what is behind your smile” thought now that might be interesting and
here I giggle again. As I played along and clicked the link. I got an answer alright? one that said
Babies, babies, babies. Now that in its own might not be so funny but I don’t have a profile picture of
my own brilliant smile. I have a knight kneeling with a message of a battle that has just begun. It
gave ma an option to “try again” and I did lol this time my smile was a ray of sunshine.
This got me thinking, how many times will I play these quizzes and how many times in the past have I
hit the “try again” button, just so that the answer will be an acceptable one. Not once did I get an
answer that really told me “who I am”. There never was one that said, you are a stubborn, know it
all, who has a soft heart hidden behind a stone wall. Never had an answer of you look and act strong
yet you cry when no one is looking. Never got an answer that although you believe you are
untouchable, you lay awake in the evening wonder why people can treat you the way they do. Never
told me, although you are a loyal friend don’t expect any loyalty from a friend. Never once told me,
as you don’t hurt so you won’t be hurt. Yet I cry alone when the hurt was done.
How many times, have you and I, been influenced by the people around us. Felt worthless and in our
desperate seeking of others approval fell victim to our own insecurities. I know who God says I am,
yet I believe the seeds planted by others with the same insecurities as mine. As I believe only an
insecure human can pinpoint another’s insecurities. I am small, therefore you need to be smaller.
Forgetting that our Father does not make mistakes. He knows who you are!
We all are so busy trying to fit in perfectly in this world and yet this perfect world does not fit us. I
know who I am, yet I am sadden by who people say I am. I know who God says I am, yet I allow
people to judge me and say who I am, I live a life of favour, yet I am sadden if people take away
earthly favour. I’m walking in power, yet people sadden me with their attempts to take away my
power. I’m walking in miracles, yet I allow people to change my outlook and miss those miracles.
I know who I am. I know who God says I am, what He says I am, where He says I’m at, I live a life of
favour, I’m walking in power, I walk in miracles, I know who I am.
Do you know who you are?
