Who I Am In Christ...

My body is very tired but my mind won't shut down. I have a million things going on in my head and I have brought them before God and I am trying very consciously not to be anxious about them, but they are still right there and won't go away. I think I am not worried so much as just aware of the different things that are going on in my life right now...I feel myself in this transition stage...so close to the next season of life but still not quite there...and really the next season scares me like crazy...it's weird...I long for it and yet wonder how I can ever be enough. I spent so much of my life not measuring up, and although I have learnt that to Jesus I AM enough and how much He loves me and that I am precious to Him, it's hard to believe that another human being would ever feel that way about me after really getting to know me. It's a real weakness in me...not feeling worthy enough or special enough. So, I have decided to start reciting Who I Am in Christ again morning, noon, night and whenever I need to...because that always seems to clear my mind of all the crap that I allow the enemy to fill it with.
