Who Am I?
At last week's church service, Wyatt told us to forget what we have heard in recent years, in particular, "Its not about me."  He said the Gospels are all about you.  All about how much God loves you and seeks you and what he will do for you.  Its about telling you that you are a child of God.  That is your identity.

Of course the Bible is about God, but Wyatt is right.  The Gospels are a love letter to us, seeking our return.  Whatever you've done, whoever you've been told you are, you are His.  And He wants you back. 

After Wyatt's message, we sang this song from Casting Crowns.  If you haven't heard it,  you can hear it on KLove.   Both the words and music are beautiful.

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?
 
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!
 
Chorus:
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the 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 seas
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me?
 
Chorus
 
I am Yours
Whom shall I fear?
Whom shall I fear?
'Cause I am Yours
I am Yours!
