Mirror-Talk Series - # 2 (Becoming Purposeful)

Today was the day when I was reminded by Him about getting to know my identity again. With my identity in mind, there is a purpose in my existence. Life should be lived purposefully. As an adult coming to age, I realized that I became the person I hoped that I would never be. I was being ridden by life like a horse, like I did not have a say.

Today, I finally had the time to reflect. And I asked God, what is my identity and how do I realize it? He gave me three questions:

1. Who am I?
2. Who have I become?
3. Who should I be? 

After reflecting, my conclusion is this: I have to live up to my identity as a Child of God. The Scripture says that His Word became flesh, His Word brought things to life, His spoken Word came into existence. When He speaks of me being His child, His beloved, then His Word has become flesh in me, it has brought me to life, and his word exists through me. In order for me to be who I am, I need to be available to His Word to live and breathe in me, daily.

Be purposeful. Be available.
