Through examination and reflection, I am trying to uncover my relationship with God. In that context, I will discover myself. I will discover who God is, and in that discovery, I will experience who I am.
And who am I? I am the image and likeness of the Divine, created good and beautiful. Who am I? I am the one who hears God’s voice, loud and clear, saying from the heavens, “My beloved, I am pleased with you. My favor rests on you. My delight is in you.” That is who I am— important, precious, and beautiful. I discover myself, my true identity, in my relationship with God.
