identity crisis

Over the last month, I've had four experiences... encounters... that have made me say: Who am I???

Invited into grief... Who am I to help with such pain?

Four adjectives used to identify me... ones I would never use of myself... a son not recognizing me in them... Who am I... what do others see?

A death... deep grief... unexpected... like the loss of a brother... Who am I... bound to another through the Spirit in love?

A request ... sent via a son: Ask your mother to pray... Who am I to be sought to bring a family to God in prayer...?

Unexpected people... unexpected requests... unexpected feelings... unexpected descriptions...

After 17 years... still transforming... still growing... filling the skin of new creation... shocking when others see what you don't... 

Who am I...

Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror...

Now I know in part...

1Corinthians 13:12

Who are you... what are you becoming?
