It's so easy to lose your way. The darkness and night can be overwhelming sometimes. Distractions overcome. It could be a stumble down a rocky path or a misstep, perhaps even someone who throws us off our true path--a foe, a friend or even a family member. But many times, I'm my own worst enemy - forgetting who I am and who I belong to. Have you ever experienced that?
I've heard this Jason Gray song over and over again on the radio and it just blended into the background noise of my car grinding down the road. Then, all of a sudden this week, I heard something new - something meant for me. Maybe meant for you, too?
Simple words -- deep meanings.
Powerful words -- powerful meaning.
In the mirror all I see is who I don't wanna be - Remind me who I am.
In the loneliest places - when I can't remember what grace is . .
When I can't receive Your love - afraid I'll never be enough - Remind me who I am
When my heart is like a stone, and I'm running far from home - Remind me who I am
If I'm Your beloved, can You help me believe it
I needed a reminder - a way back - an encouragement.

In our feebleness, I don't think we want to be thought of as "beloved." It's almost "too" good. Insecurities grip our hearts and make us think we don't deserve to be found; don't deserve the love. Yes, we don't deserve even grace. Dare we hope for something so precious, so dear?
If I'm Your beloved, can You help me believe it.
Tell me, once again who I am to You, who I am to You
Tell me, lest I forget Who I am to You, that I belong to You, to You
Thanks Jason Gray for this wonderful reminder. Lest I forget . . .
