Who Am I

Who am I? A few years ago, on an international flight, I was in a close conversation with a woman heading for a self - help group in a new era. "You have mastered all the truths you need," she told me. "You are a god"
A few months ago, a high school student told me about his father's abuse. "I'm sorry" I said. "You are not worth it" The young man looked at me with the sky's eye and said, "My father said I should get it, he thought I was not worth it ing"
Recently, a student leader at a large Christian school acknowledged me that he suffered from the charm of homosexuality. "I thought this was just a stage," he said. "But I realized that this was me."
Looking at our culture, there seems to be an identity crisis. People do not know who they are. Every day, we are lying. "You are like you." "You are what you bought." "You are just a conscientious animal." "Whatever you choose, nothing you do"
What is behind this identity struggle? It will result in a world view. Because we are built in the statue of God, God is a fixed reference point for our design, purpose, and value. If you want to know who we are, you have to start with looking up (not yourself) (not yourself).
Who am I? For those who refuse or forget about God like atheists, humans are here. What is human being worth? We look around and find the smartest, coolest person. Of course, vulnerable, disabled, and other inappropriate people are excluded. History and daily news exemplify the bad result of this idea.
On the other hand, theologians say that God is an abstract principle of all of us. Therefore, we only need to understand our worth. Of course there are people who want to hurt other people, others want to help others. If everyone is a god, who is right?
Without exception, not recognizing God's culture inevitably robs humanity. By contrast, the Bible worldview tells us that it is creative to us creative and designed for his lofty purpose. It is guilty, but we can reconcile with God in Christ and understand ourselves correctly.
Today, Dr. Andrew Clark shared information we shared with us this week. I asked myself Who is I going out? Who am I sharing love? Who is bringing God's "light" to the world? Certainly, I know that I am not prepared to reveal God to others. As a disciple of Christ, we do not always need to talk about God, it is believed that we need to reveal God in our actions. For me, I am a major ongoing work! Do not look at me, he is still cleaning me. However, please look at "WHO". I admit that I got messed up every day. Love is still what I am learning. But as God taught me through his words he will tell him he will lead me, he will work through me ... I just need to let him in there is!

I ask basic questions myself everyday. Who am I? Who would you like to be? However, it is not easy to answer them. Also, there is a possibility that the answer is inconsistent. Still, I think that each of us should spend a few minutes a day to answer them. I would like to be a person with many improvements to people. To speak frankly, I would like to be a person who left a mark in people's lives. When I die I hope people miss me and weep for me like Indian missile man A.P.J. Abdul Kalam died. Regardless of religion and language, the whole state of India mourns for his death. This is what I am anxious for, he is the person I admire.
