Who am I in Christ?

Who am I in Christ?  I was given some papers Wednesday evening when I was at church; and the title of the paper is, "Who I am in Christ."  I have changed this to: Who am I in Christ.?  Changing it from a statement to a question.
Okay, so this is a picture of me.  Alright, but who is "me."  More importantly who does God think I am and what does God think of me?  

I have so many flaws!  Have you ever sat down and seriously listed all your flaws?  If I do this, I think I will do it privately, rather than for the all world to see.

I was told as a little girl that we weren't supposed to air our dirty laundry.  And that statement never really made a whole lot of sense to me.    I could understand hanging out our wet laundry, but way would you waste time hanging out dirty clothes when they hadn't been washed yet?

God just told me something!  Hahaha, it's really fun when God speaks to me, especially when I am writing my blog...it's like He is saying to me, "Kirsten, come on write this..." and He barely gives me a moment to catch it!  Okay this is what he said..."All the unsaved people out there, are walking around in their dirty clothes, in unwashed bodies, smelling up the place that I created, we must do something about this,"  I am trying Lord, "TRY HARDER KIRSTEN!"  Okay God!  So I sit here and say to myself, and to God, what do you want me to do?  I am listening....okay I will keep writing my blog.  For starters that does seem to be reaching a bit of an audience.

I have readers in the United States, that has the most and then there is Russia, then Germany, France, Sweden, and finally Malaysia.

And so far I have gotten only two comments, one from my sister, yay Olwen, ([pronounced All-When and my name is pronounced K-ear-s-tin] I know, our Mom had quite the sense of humor, she gave us each names that we have had to fight with people our whole lives to get them to pronounce them correctly!)  The other comment came from a friend of my daughter's down in South Carolina, which I have to say was an awesome comment, she told me that she hadn't spoken to God in a long time, but after reading my blog one day , she did.  I really thank God for this comment, it told me that I am reaching someone out there and this really blessed my heart and still does.

I think, for me, I need affirmation that I am doing a good thing and that I am reaching people and that in receiving this affirmation, I am also receiving the impetus to keep going, and God talking to me while I am writting is just the coolest!  Okay, okay  I know I am giving my age away, well what can I say, yes I was a flower child,  BUT NOW, I am a child of the most high King!  Yay Daddy!  Maybe this is way I like flowers so much, I must be obedient to God, "No you like flowers because I did such a good job creating them!"

Okay so back to the question at hand...Who am I in Christ,  well I am a servant.  And I do not mean as in a maid.  I mean as in, when I do something for someone else, like bringing in wood for the wood stove for my husband,  he is always thankful to me when I do this, but I am not doing it for his Thanks, I am doing it because I want to help him.  But it is nice to hear the Thank you.  But when we are doing things with a servant's heart, we should not be looking for the thank yous!  It is really best if you can do something anonymously, but when you live in a house with only two people it's kind of easy to tell when one has done something for the other.

Instead of my examining who I am in Christ (and publishing it here) I think that I will allow my God to direct my paths and for me to do as He wants me to do...He know what I do, and He know what I do not do.  I hope that when it all comes down to it, that He will see that my doing far out weighs my not doing.  Be open to God's direction, He will not push you to do anything that is not good.  He will only push you to do the things that will be of benefit to either you or to someone else.  And when I say push you, I mean that somehow you will come under conviction from the Holy Spirit.

Now it is time to go and be a blessing to someone else! How about you?
