WHO AM I?



I did a lot of driving today - mainly down country highways, and the view was spectacular! The sun was shining and I saw wild flowers at the side of the road, crops growing wonderfully, trees adorned with luscious leaves - some with flowers too - and the sky was HUGE! Bright blue, with tons of multi-coloured clouds. (It was a picture-taking day - and I'd forgotten my camera - this pic is from another gorgeous day.) I was amazed at the sight before me - how beautiful this world is, and how small I am! Made me think of all of the concerns of life - and how I fret about them - and yet GOD IS IN CONTROL! What a comfort that is! The events of last week - the accident - and how small we truly are when life goes out of control - even when we think we are in control! And yet, GOD CARES! About the big things AND the little things!

I drove along and Casting Crowns began to sing one of my favourite songs -

Who am I?
That the Lord of all the earth,
Would care to know my name,
Would care to feel my hurt.
Who am I?
That the bright and morning star,
Would choose to light the way,
For my ever wandering heart.

Chorus:
Not because of who I am,
But because of what you've done.
Not because of what I've done,
But because of who you are.
I am a flower quickly fading,
Here today and gone tomorrow,
A wave tossed in the ocean, (ocean)
A vapor in the wind.
Still you hear me when I'm calling,
Lord, you catch me when I'm falling,
And you've told me who I am.
I am yours.I am yours.

Who am I?
That the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
And watch me rise again.
Who am I?
That the voice that calmed the sea,
Would call out through the rain,
And calm the storm in me.

Chorus 2x

I am yours.I am yours.
Whom shall I fear? Whom shall I fear?
'Cause I am yours.I am yours.


PRAISE THE LORD!
