There is site called RethinkChurch.com – and this year for
Lent they are asking people who would like to participate to take a photo a day
to represent one phrase or word connected with lent. Since I was sick yesterday I didn’t get a
chance to blog by I did take a photo yesterday.
The phrase was Who am I? When I
thought of the phrase I immediately began to sing the old Point of Grace Song –
Who am I, that you would love me so gently, who am I, that you would recognize
my name, who am I that you would speak to me so softly, conversation with the
Lord Most High, who am I?
I began to think of what images reminds me of who I am in
the eyes of God…. I thought about a lump of formless clay (but I didn’t have
any available to take a picture of) so I began to think about how God sees me,
as a child. That image kept coming to my
mind all day long. And as many of you
know if you have been following my blog, I recently met my birthmother and just
yesterday had the privilege of meeting my half sister for the first time. What a great reunion of which I will write
more later, but while I was there she gave me a gift from my mother, Nancy…. It
was a beautiful gold mother daughter necklace with our birthstones in it. It seemed to be a perfect symbol of who I am….
I am mother of my little girl Ella and to one who was lost to miscarriage…. And
I am a daughter, a daughter of Nancy, a daughter of Lynn, a daughter of
Eleanor, but most importantly a daughter of the King! So I took my first picture of my new necklace
as a picture of the phrase – WHO AM I?
