MY FRIENDS, WHO AM I THAT THE LORD OF ALL THE EARTH WOULD CARE TO KNOW MY NAME?
“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.
I am a flower quickly fading Here today and gone tomorrow a wave tossed in the ocean Vapor in the wind, Still You hear me when I’m calling Lord, You catch me when I’m falling.
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. 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. (Casting Crowns “Who Am I”)
My friends let the words of that song sink into your heart and let’s make it personal, all about you and I and about our relationship with God individually as we ask ourselves, “Who Am I?” That the all-knowing, all-powerful, Omnipresence being would care to know my name and be concerned about my salvation.
“Who Am I?” who like the dusk in the wind, I am Here today and gone tomorrow, but I am still, fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” Ps. 139:14 (NIV) The Psalmist also tells us “The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.” Ps. 90:10 (KJV)
“Who Am I?” that no matter what I have done or how far I have fallen into sin, His arm is still long enough to reach me as he whispers those calming words into my ear “Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid for the Lord thy God…will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.” Deut. 31:6 (KJV)
“Who Am I?” if I will” Humble myself in the sight of the Lord, He will lift me up.” To be a part of “a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, [who] may proclaim the praises of Him who called [me] out of darkness into His marvelous light; 1 Peter 2:9 (NKJV)
Oh the Power of our Creator and just like “the winds and the waves obey him”! “Who Am I?” that with this same power, calls out through the rain and calm the storms in my life, if I will just call out, “save me Lord,” please don’t let me drown.”
“Who Am I?” that all He does for me, is not because I am anybody special, or because I have done anything outstanding, it is simply because of the love, grace and mercy of the one who gave His only begotten Son and a Son who gave His life for me on Calvary”
My friends, “Who Am I?” that in spite of my sins, “for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God, Romans 3:23 (KJV) He still loves me and allows the sun to shine over me each day and will do whatever it takes, so that one day I may have life eternal and have it more abundantly in His kingdom.
So my friends, right now Let’s just take the time to express the love God has shown for us, and with passion from the bottom of our heart, give God all the honor praise and glory that only He deserves.
So “Glory to God Now to Him who is able to keep you [and I] from stumbling, And to present us faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever.” My Friends, Who Am I? I Am A Child of The King!
So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
