Who do I see when I look in the mirror?  I know the person that I WANT to see.  I want to see a mom to multiple children.  I want to be part of the “moms group” that talks about their children together.  I can sit and think about all the things that I want to be, but that doesn’t change the fact that I am somebody right now.  True, I want to be a mom in a house filled with children.  That hasn’t happened, and moping about it won’t help.  Rather than dwell on who I am not, perhaps it’s time to ponder who I am now… already.

• I am a baptized child of God.
• I am a forgiven member of the family of Christ.
• I am the daughter of Roger and Laurie.
• I am a sister to Troy and Kirk.
• I am the wife of Jerome.
• I am the mother of Joanna.
• I am an auntie.
• I am a godmother.
• I am a neighbor.
• I am a piano teacher.
• I am a choir director.
• I am a friend.

Dear sisters, we are already precious in the eyes of God.  When He looks at us, He sees a dearly loved child.  We rejoice in the privilege and honor of sharing that love with those God has given to us.  Now it’s your turn – “Who are you?”
