So recently, I have been starting to get into finding who I am. I have also been studying the totality of who God is. We all generally understand and follow 2 Gods....We know the God who can smite us and then we know the God of love. It is really hard for a person to combine the two and understand the whole Almightiness of the Lord. Not that we are meant to. But a person can try. :) So i wrote this...Its not any good. It was during one of my quiet times.
Thats My KING!
I am Samantha Lou Owens. I am a big boned, ghetto booty, beautiful young woman. I walk to my own rhythm. I sing to my own song. My laughter strikes the air often. Joyful is my dance. I am a lover, a fighter, a hugger. Smiles are my favorite. But most important of all of who I am…I am a follower of my Jesus, true King of the Universe, Creator of all things. That is my identity. THIS is who I am. All the things that come from me is the result of my Lord. I laugh because He brings me happiness. He brings me joy in the little things in life. Green tea. Heart earrings. Fuzzy socks. Sunshine. Little things that no one ever notices. Everyday, He repeatedly captivates my heart. He woos me until I am utterly and completely in love with my God. He knows my heart, every nook and cranny of its complicated depths. That is my King! He sees my every desire before I even know what it is. He put the passion for international places, for people who are different then me, for loners, for the broken, for the suffering, inside of me. He delights in making me smile. I can only laugh at myself when I am anxious. Anxious about my future, about the unknown looming in the near distance. You see, my King knows. My life, my future is known by my Father. He gave me the eyes to see the depths of people’s hearts. To see past the “okay”. To see how they truly are. Isn’t my Lord creative? Isnt my Lord loving? Isn’t my Lord protective? So, when I think of who I am, of everything that makes me, it all comes down to one statement. I am the daughter of the Lord God Almighty.
