IDENTITY


My lovely daughter gave me these
beautiful roses on my birthday.

IDENTITY
~by ~ T. Raceine York

When you have no identity;
When you don’t know who you are;
When your name is a battleground
it leaves long-lasting scars.
When outsiders argue constantly
about how to pronounce your name
it cracks your soul a little more,
but when family does the same ---
it breaks your heart and angers you.
It makes you doubt your worth.
It makes you question who you are.
It makes you regret your birth.
But there is One who never questions;
He knows exactly who you are.
You are His beloved son or daughter.
You are the treasure of His heart.
He has called you by your name;
the name He gave to you.
So when you doubt who you are
remember, He knows you through and through.
He knew you before time began.
He knew you before you were formed.
He wove you in the innermost parts.
He knew you before you were born.
While others may argue and disagree
about your names’ pronunciation
God is calling you by your name.
You are His dearly loved creation.
 

 
 

Until next time, my Friends, follow your dreams
