Yes I Am

In trying to think of ways to explain what it means to be a Christian, I never run out of ideas. I could probably blog from now 'til Jesus comes and never get through testifying about what it means to be a Christian. But I want to move on to other topics, as well. So let me sum up...

I am a Christian. I follow Christ. I am His disciple. I was made by Him to be like Him, and I want to become more and more like Him every day. I believe in Him, and I believe His Word. I am a student and a teacher, an imitator and an example. I belong to Him, and I want to be with Him.

I am forgiven. I am redeemed. I am born again. I am loved unconditionally, and I love in return. I am a new creation. Old things have passed away, all things have become new. I am committed. I am determined. I am resolved. I am persuaded. I am confident.

I have hope. I have life. I have a future. I have assurance. I have all that I will ever need in Him. I have a calling on my life to worship Him and to serve Him. I have a destiny. I have a purpose, and God has a plan for me.

Most of all, I am blessed in every possible way because I am His, and He is mine.
