Fish and chips tonight at Doogers. This came up:
What is your greatest talent? What, in a moment of brutal honesty, would you admit defines you? I would have to say it's something I take for granted: my brain. I'm used to being able to think and to think rationally. (Most of the time. No comments please.☺) What if I couldn't? What if I was injured or got dementia and couldn't make a reasonable decision? So my defining strength is also my greatest insecurity.
Pause. Jesus will never change. Jesus will never suddenly tire of me and leave. The greatest thing that actually defines me is the Great Unchangeable I AM. The world has nothing like this. No constant. No surety. Of anything! Can you imagine living like that?! I find myself running to the Bible these days just because I know it's true! So much in my daily life is suspect. I was reminded of this by a similar subject I found while rereading my journal last night: why do I place such stock in the opinions of man when they could be completely incorrect in their opinions about me? Only God's opinions are correct. Of me, and everything else. And He won't change.
Selah.
