"For you created my inmost being, you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know them full well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth." //Psalm 139:13-15 (NIV Version) Maybe it's true that this issue has to be finally resolved one more time before March, that this is one final hurdle that I have to leap across, one more bird that I have to stone and bury before the dust settles and I move forward. I guess this issue has held me back for long enough, and I cannot allow it to be the splinter in my heel any longer. It's truly like what Ps Lionel Goh said this morning, my identity and self-worth is in the knowledge that I am a child of God. If I stand firm and claim on that identity, knowing that God loves me for who I am, then I need not fear the negativity that sometimes creeps up or the expectations of other people that will come. But I can claim His promises for me with full joy, knowing that this is what he planned for me and that it will be more than amazing. So help me get over this stumbling stone one last time. Help me stand on your promise that I am fearfully and wonderfully made, that in you I am perfect and I need not prove myself, because in your presence is fullness of grace and approval. Fall down. Stand up again.
