Who Am I?

I have no review today not because I haven't been reading great books that I promise I will share, but instead this is on my heart.  Instead of a book review, I've been reading "the book" -- the Bible and have heard this scripture more than once in the last 24 hours.

Who are we in God's eyes, who are we in the world's eyes... are we going where God wants us to go...

Ephesians 1: 3-8 (NLT)

All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ.

Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes.  God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.  So we praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Son.  He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins.  He has showered his kindness on us, along with all wisdom and understanding.

Sometimes we can feel lost and not know what direction we should be going, but I've been reminded that it doesn't change who we are.  We are chosen and blessed because of God's infinite and unending love, love that was so deep he gave his son to die for each and everyone one of us on a cross, so it doesn't matter if I work outside of the home or in the home, it doesn't matter what role or position I have, I have one position and that is a servant of an amazing God who will give me the direction I need in his time. 

Today's inspiration was from two teachers who God has blessed my life with.  I hope this blesses you wherever you are in your day.
