Who Are You? – Romans 8:16

16 God's Spirit touches our spirits and confirms who we really are. We know who He is, and we know who we are: Father and children.
– Romans 8:16 (The Message)



Who Are You?
Do you know who you are? Do you know how really good and very good you are? Do you know that you have been hand-picked, set-aside, and are being polished to perfection to live your life right now, in this place and time? Do you know it? Can you grasp the concept?

Close your eyes and think on God . . . go ahead, stop reading this and close your eyes right now and think on Him and what HE really is in your life. Take your time, I'll wait for you to come back.

Good, you came back . . . Did you see Him? Did you talk to Him? Did you let His Heart touch your heart?  Did you feel His Spirit touching your spirit? Did you get that confirmation that let you know that you are really His. I mean REALLY His?  I know sometimes it doesn't feel like it - especially because we know how many mistakes we make and how easy it is to make them, but yes, we ARE His and He has us in His Hands . . . ALWAYS!

God is our Father!  He is our Hero, our Champion, our entire cheering section.  No one wants to see us succeed and thrive like He does.  He loves us so very much and His Heart aches for our love and recognition of Him as our Papa, our Daddy, our Father.

So give yourself a break today. Refuse to give in to the lie that you are flawed, or that you make too many mistakes so God can't use you, or that maybe He's ashamed of you. Give yourself a break!  Nothing you can do; no mistake you can make; no ugly thought you can think, will change the way He sees you. He loves you because you are His child and if you can get that, I mean REALLY understand it, then you will begin to start having victory over the little things that are constantly trying to divert your attention away from the One who really knows who you are . . . your Father, your Amazing and Wonderful Father, who Loves you so very much!

Prayer
Father, Your Spirit confirms in my spirit that You are my Father! I love You so very much!  I pray for Your help in allowing my brothers and sisters to see You as You really are in their lives - to realize the awesome relationship that exists because You are their Father and they are Your children.  Thank You Lord!

Have a Blessed day Children of God!
