Who We Truly Are

Do you want to know who you really are? To lose your life, give up on being king of your world, for His sake is to gain it, trust the true King. 

To love instead of judging. To accept instead of reject. To have peace and joy in the midst of suffering. To ask instead of know. To learn from others. To be lead the way to go. To have a compassion for those who have less than you. To have mercy for those who have hurt you. Forgiveness for those who have sinned against you. To have faith when you face the unexpected. To be humble instead of proud. To enjoy God. To experience the heart of worship.

To have love, through Christ, is to know who you truly are....You radiate His face as He passes before you and lives in and through you. I see it in others, my brothers and sisters in Christ. I want this...It is beyond me and my capabilities. But I have to believe in Him it is possible.

C. S. Lewis observed, "The more we let God take us over, the more truly ourselves we become — because he made us. He invented all the different people that you and I were intended to be. It is when I turn to Christ, when I give up myself to His personality, that I first begin to have a real personality of my own."
