How I answer one simple question
Colors this day and my tomorrows
Unless I pause and reflect carefully.
Who am I?
❤️
Often we answer with memories
Starting from our earliest days
Words spoken over us or
Events that never leave our mind.
❤️
Other times we respond with
Roles we have played for years
Relationships we held
Responsibilities we assumed.
❤️
All of these answers have
Served us well in due season
But do these still fit now?
Yet, we cling to them anyway.
❤️
Freedom promised by our Father
Begins with a different identity
Beloved. Equipped. Prepared.
For this day as it unfolds.
❤️
Releasing the loyal one
Who protected us in certainty
Retired in honor, counting the cost
Our pathway to freedom is in a new
Story.
