Who am I?

I still recall, it was just a few months ago, our teacher gave us an assignment, and she wants us to answer four questions, and one of them was, "Who am I?" I finished answering the other three questions, and I'm stuck with this last question, "Who am I?" I reread it a lot of times, still my mind was blank. I really had no idea what to put in this question. Until the night before submission day, I added some words to make the sentence a bit easier to answer, "Who am I that God would give me so much blessings?" And there, I came up with an answer, "I am a nobody, yet God loves me so much, unconditionally. I have so much sins and do not deserve all these blessings, yet God still gives me the best blessings." That was the first time I encountered a question like that and it was also the first time I evaluated myself.

"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 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"


Reflection:
Ask yourself this question, "Who am I?"
