And I forget my name
Remind me who I am
In the mirror all I see
Is who I don't wanna be
Remind me who I am
In the loneliest places
When I can't remember what grace is
Tell me, once again
Who I am to You, who I am to You
Tell me, lest I forget
Who I am to You, that I belong to You
To You
When my heart is like a stone,
And I'm running far from home
Remind me who I am
When I can't receive Your love
Afraid I'll never be enough
Remind me who I am
If I'm Your beloved, can You help me believe it?
I'm the one You love, I'm the one You love
That will be enough, I'm the one You love
lyrics from:
this song tells my story. i was feeling exactly this way before He took away that something that's been hindering me from loving myself, from loving Him and loving people.
ironically though, as soon as i got the breakthrough, an old friendship got terminated. i can't say i'm not affected at all, yet somehow i don't feel the torment which would torment me if it happened to me previously. it's not the first time i was given this treatment by the same friend. this time, i'm able to look at it with a new heart, with new eyes. i'm no longer resigned to the notion that i'm truly unlovable and i have to earn someone's favour to enjoy his or her fellowship. imagine the sh:t He goes through having to put up with our sh:t. but He stays put and continues being our loving Abba. we don't have to do one thing more or less to experience His generous grace. if anything, we just run away and avoid Him. and trust Him to woo us back home.
i hope my friend gets her breakthrough soon. it's the best thing that can happen to anyone.
