Who You Be???
I've heard this question over and over again..."who are you" and I think the root of most of our problems in life is the loss of identity; we don't know who we are.
I realized lately that the reason most people allow themselves to be used, abused, mistreated, talked to anyhow is majorly because they don't know who they are, they have not come to the knowledge of what they carry and who God has made them to be. The bible says in Psalm 139:14 that we are "fearfully and wonderfully made", note the two words, fearfully and Wonderfully, have you ever thought about what it means to "fearfully" make something? As in you are making something and you are so scared of anything going wrong that you are so focused on making it right. Which invariably means that God made us as perfect as He wanted each one of us to be because He paid extra attention to the creation process of each and everyone of us.
Why am I going on and on about our identity? I read two different posts today from two different blogs and to say I was surprised would be putting it mildly, the stories were really pathetic and I felt sad that anybody whether man or woman will allow themselves to be treated the way these ladies in the posts were treated. Why would a 20yr old allow herself to be raped and physically abused over and over gain by her supposed boyfriend or why would any lady date a guy for 5 years, cooking, cleaning and sleeping with him then the guy just disappears and the next thing you hear, he has gotten married to someone else.
I'm sorry if I sound harsh but if you know the kind of gifts, talents, treasures that God put inside of you when you were created, you won't allow anyone for whatever reason to abuse you or treat you anyhow. It never ceases to amaze me when ladies complain that a guy left them after 2, 3, 4 or more years of dating to go marry someone else. Why won't he leave you when you've done everything a wife should be doing even though you were just a girlfriend. I mean, you've cooked for him, washed his clothes, slept with him, some have even gone ahead to foot all the bills in the relationship. Sorry sweetie, it might have worked for some in the past but trust me if you want a guy to marry you, you don't go about giving him for free what he's supposed to pay for, its a case of "why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free" right?
What is the koko of all my gist here??? Ladies get a life, have a purpose, dreams whatever it is that makes you get out of bed every morning with determination to make it besides a man. Don't let a man be the alpha and omega of your life, you were created for much more than being MRS SOMEBODY. Get out there, use all the gifts and talents God gave you and stop worrying whether you are beautiful enough to be proposed to. Remember, YOU WERE FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE.
This is my point of view, drop a line let me know yours.
