Who Am I

After talking with Kev last night and talking about James and how we sometimes feel like we are like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind because of our doubt that God will deliver, I was reminded of this song, Who Am I by Casting Crowns:

Who am I?
That the Lord of all the earth,
Would care to know my name,
Would care to feel my hurt.
Who am I?
That the bright and morning star,
Would choose to light the way,
For my ever wandering heart.

Not because of who I am,
But because of what you've done.
Not because of what I've done,
But because of who you are.

I am a flower quickly fading,
Here today and gone tomorrow,
A wave tossed in the ocean,
A vapor in the wind.
Still you hear me when I'm calling,
Lord, you catch me when I'm falling,
And you've told me who I am.
I am yours.
I am yours.

Who am I?
That the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
And watch me rise again.
Who am I?
That the voice that calmed the sea,
Would call out through the rain,
And calm the storm in me.

Not because of who I am,
But because of what you've done.
Not because of what I've done,
But because of who you are.

I am a flower quickly fading,
Here today and gone tomorrow,
A wave tossed in the ocean,
A vapor in the wind.
Still you hear me when I'm calling,
Lord, you catch me when I'm falling,
And you've told me who I am.
I am yours.

Not because of who I am,
But because of what you've done.
Not because of what I've done,
But because of who you are.

I am a flower quickly fading,
Here today and gone tomorrow,
A wave tossed in the ocean,
A vapor in the wind.
Still you hear me when I'm calling,
Lord, you catch me when I'm falling,
And you've told me who I am.
I am yours.
I am yours.

I am yours.

Whom shall I fear?
Whom shall I fear?
'Cause I am yours.
I am yours.

And it is so true - it is totally not because of who I am, because seriously, I suck, and it is all because of GOD and everything that he has done for me! I am totally, 100% God's! He hears me when I cry out to him and is always there to catch me, who can I say in my life has ALWAYS been there for me, since I was born until where I am today. God rescued me from so much darkness in my life to redeem me and make me his child. I need to be reminded everyday that I am HIS and need to live my life as such.

Since I did not have this song on my computer, I turned to youtube, and this video really touched me last night.



And then it was pretty cool that Marc chose to sing this song at Prayer Meeting tonight!
