Very well said Love. This brings to mind John the Baptist’s words- behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.

And- He must increase, but I must decrease.

Rachel, I so remember those early years of marriage, and feeling much the same way. Then again when I became a mom, and now, again, as roles and responsibilities change in my life. I think the Lord allows us to be in these uncomfortable times of feeling “undefined” as a person so that our only definition and association would be the name of Christ. That he would be our all in all! Thanks so much for sharing.

It’s funny how many scenarios play out in our heads when we are entering uncharted territory! I have no idea what it will be like either, but I am seeking to place my hope on His unfailing love and not on others’ approval. What a great time we’ll have if we can focus on that!

Jolene, thank you for your vulnerability….I think we all feel that way so much, and yet, we are truly special, unique, forgiven, and greatly loved. That’s your identity and mine! Blessings to you.

Love you, Libbs. I so agree…if we listen to the conflicting messages around us, we will end up totally confused! Praise the Lord we need not chase after any other identity!

I’ve been praying for you this week, with the upcoming conference in mind, that God would give you eyes to see yourself as He sees you.

This seems to be right where I’m at in my life, honestly I feel like I’ve been here most of my life. “Who am I?” “What defines me?” and I’ve struggled most recently since getting married, moving away from my family and putting a career on hold for my husband to pursue his. I could not be blessed with a better man. He understands my “sacrifice” and I love him and thank him for that, but silently I feel like I’ve lost myself. If anything, my time being away from home and a career has brought me even closer to Christ. I know now it’s what I needed and this post opened my eyes to the realization that I am His, I have been blessed beyond words, He has a great plan for me, and I can face each day with the peace and comfort in knowing that. Thank you!

Amen, Ruth, and the other ladies. I have no idea what to expect next week, but the thought has crossed my mind, “what if they don’t like me?”. Far too often I put the old me’s foot first, when my deepest desire is Him – not me, not my feet or hands, and certainly not my mouth. Ah, to be still and know the Lord, and be consumed by the new me, the Christ living in me.
