Who Am I?

Who am I to scoff at the beauty that has come from the ashes? Who am I to deny the dance upon these ruins and the hope that I have indeed seen with my own eyes?

Alone I Am...

...tired
...selfish
...lazy
...bitter
...angry
...broken-hearted
...independent
...sinful
...rude
...jealous
...depressed
...cold
...limp

BUT...

...in HIM, I Am...

...Energized by Faith
...Recreated
...ALIVE
...Joyful
...Peaceful
...Healed
...Dependent
...Forgiven
...Forgiving
...Patient
...Happy
...Compassionate
...A Dancing Fool

"Out of these ashes...beauty will rise
and we will dance among the ruins
We will see Him with our own eyes
Out of these ashes...beauty will rise
For we know, joy is coming in the morning...
in the morning..."
~ Beauty will Rise, Steven Curtis Chapman, 2009
