I am who I am

"I am who I am because You are who You are.

You are who you are because I am who I am."

I wanted to share what I recently received from the Lord about prayer song above a sister in Christ sang over me when we were all together hanging out and praying: The light bulb went off the other night as I’ve been diving deeper into law vs. grace. I had heard someone say in regards to the works to salvation mindset basically is: “I am what I do.” 

But that’s not what or who I am. 

I am the song the Lord gave this woman to sing over me with the first part being what I would say to God (I am who I am because You are who You are), and the 2nd part is what God says to me (You are who you are because I am who I am). It’s beautiful! I’m learning to rest in grace, and I’m looking forward to diving deeper into Him to see and hear and live Christ in me the hope of glory rather than my works and failures that keep me in condemnation.

Because of His great love toward man... Because of His desire for friendship and relationship... Because His longing for oneness and unity in Him once again... That is why I am here and what makes me who I am. He made a way for me and all who choose daily to rest in His finished work.

Love you, Lord.
