Who Do You Say You Are??

by | Sep 29, 2015 | 31 Days Celebrating Who You Are

Who do you say you are??

Who do you say you areA strong athlete? A talented writer? A good cook?

A mom, wife, daughter? A dad, husband, son?

Are you a member of a certain club, group, or political party affiliation?

Do you describe yourself by your job, your religion, or your position in life?

Do you consider yourself an early riser or are you a night owl?

And digging a little deeper…

When you think of who you are, do uplifting and positive words come to mind, or do words filled with negativity and unworthiness appear?

(Sometimes for me, that depends on the day and which side of the bed I woke up on!)

Who do you say you are? I’d love to read your answer below. 

No matter how you answered this question, I invite you join me on a journey. (I love having traveling buddies!)

A 31-day journey of celebrating who you are.

No by my words, however. But, by God’s.

By the title of this blog, you can guess where my faith lies and Who I put my faith in. I’m passionate about learning from God’s Word (The Bible), and seeking how I can apply it to my life. Studying scripture now for 19 years, if I’ve learned anything, I’ve learned God’s Words are true. Without question. And they apply to life now, just as much as they did to those living in Bible times.

So, for the entire month of October, we’re going to take a look at who God says you and I are in His Word. For 31 days straight. Beginning October 1.

Without condemnation. Without guilt. (We have enough of those on our own!)

Without judgment. Without pressure. Without striving, having to measure up, or feeling left out.

I believe we’ll be encouraged, uplifted, impacted, and stirred. I expect we’ll see God and ourselves in refreshing and unique ways. And I imagine new insights and realities will be revealed individually for each of us as we learn together.

Yes, together. You and I. Growing in God’s truth. Together. (I love together, don’t you??!!)

It’s going to be a great journey:

31 Days Celebrating Who You Are31 Days celebrating who you are

Stop back to be encouraged. All month long. Starting Thursday, October 1.

And for today, allow me to leave you with this truth:

You are precious to God, and you are precious to me.

Thank you for journeying through this life with me. I am honored to be your traveling buddy!

Much love,

Julie

 

 

(Through these #CelebratingWhoYouAre posts I’m joining in the #write31days challenge that happens each October for writers all across the world. It’s an exciting challenge that stretches, impacts, and grows the writer and his/her readers. Last year I wrote on 31 Days Loving God & Loving Others.)

    Yes, we are His. Thank you for that reminder and truth, Julie. It is so easy to fall into the world’s definition of “me” and I don’t want to be just those things but rather His!

It's the season to bloom where you're planted, friend. It's the series on the podcast this month, too!

Trust God with the seeds He's planted. He's at work through them.

Listen to episode 196 of the Encouragement for Real Life Podcast to learn how you can bloom right where you are.

So what is Abundant Life Mentoring?

It’s more than a conversation.
It’s a journey into purpose, peace, and God’s best for your life.

You don’t have to figure it all out on your own.
You don’t have to stay stuck.
You were made to live abundantly.

Swipe to discover what this mentoring space is all about—rooted in grace, led by the Spirit, and personalized for your real life.

Ever feel this way? 🥴

Have I got some encouragement for you! Listen to episode 196 of the Encouragement for Real Life Podcast as we begin a new series, Bloom Where You're Planted. 🌸

In this episode, we look at how we can find hope before the blooming in our lives takes place. 🌱

Today’s reminder:
You don’t have to be perfect to be powerful.
You don’t have to have it all together to be deeply loved.
You’re already chosen, already cherished.

Let’s see ourselves through God's grace-colored glasses today.

Not sure if Abundant Life Mentoring is for you?
Let’s look at the 7 things it’s not.

Too many women believe mentoring has to be intense, performance-driven, or one-size-fits-all. But that’s not what you’ll find here. Abundant Life Mentoring is a grace-filled, Christ-centered space for real women seeking real growth.

Swipe through to see what won’t be part of your experience—then come back tomorrow for what will.

There's a group of special women out there who, for one reason or another, show up to church alone. 

At a former church, an entire row was filled with us women who came without spouses or families, and we created quite a bond. We knew we needed it--and each other.

I get it--it's not so easy to do somedays, walking in alone, sitting by oneself, but every time, God meets me there.

If you went to church by yourself or know someone who did today, I see you. I'm with you. I am praying for you. Keep showing up. Your presence matters more than you know.

Sometimes the most sacred moments don’t look polished. Sometimes they include a book, a lap full of grandsons, and yes—even a finger in a nose.😉

But this? This is legacy.
This is love.
This is what matters right now.🩷

You don’t have to have it all together to make a difference.
Your presence is enough. Your faithfulness is forming something eternal.🌸

Keep showing up, even when life feels messy. God is using it all. 🙌
