A Question

Today I was asked a question, "Do you ever wake up and not know who you are? You just feel kind of empty and running around not real sure where you're headed?" My first response, "Yeah. I do. Especially times like now when life is getting ready to change drastically and I only have ideas in my head of where I can go. I just feel like I keep working, keep treading water, but that's all I'm doing is just treading water...not really moving." After a while however, I stopped and I thought about it. No. I should always know who I am. A daughter of the King. It doesn't matter what I'm going through, what my work load is, what my life is throwing at me. It doesn't matter if I have just an idea or the exact place I'm going to be 8 months from now.  I'm still chosen, hand picked, saved by grace, and loved by the Savior. So, the real answer is, "No. I don't. I'm a daughter of the King. Want to know Him?" Maybe one day God will give me the opportunity to answer that question again and I pray that He does because I missed a great opportunity to share the gospel because of my own chaotic build up of things in life...but, I guess you can only see them when you remember whose you are...a child of the Ancient of Days, held in the mighty hand of God, never ever ever to be let go. 
Next time you're asked something like that...just stop. Put yourself aside. Remember whose you are. 
On His adventure,
