what am I

sometimes I feel like the biggest hippocrite, not feel like - I know I am!

At work I convince people to buy moisturisers, and that its important to use them (and the matching body scrub) regularly, yet I rarely ever bother myself. I feel like such a fraud sometimes.

I speak to people, through my week, and encourage them to love, follow and obey God, and I know that so often I again, don't follow my own advice. I choose things that benefit myself, I fall into temptation and I sin (not that its temptations fault, I am the one who did it), I don't always love others the way Jesus loves them, and wants me to love them!

I was reminded again today of the amazing love and grace God has shown us in Christ - which we ought to be reminded of continually, and reminded of why we ought to Love the God who made us, sustains us, loves us, saves us. There are not enough thanks in the world to tell God how great he is, or how amazing the transformation to know Jesus is. So I again, choose to offer all I am and all I have to him, as a living sacrifice. I belong to God anyway, he has bought me at a price (and i'm darn thankful for it!), i'm forever his. I pray that I will be able to be reminded deeply, daily and live it out, not just talking about things. May God's spirit bear fruit within me, that I may serve him - and everyone before me to bring glory to the one who is great.

so what am I - i'm a child of God, and I choose to find my identity in Christ
