If you follow me on Facebook or Twitter (@mslesley22) you know that I have had an interesting day…So driving home, it made me think and I’ve wanted to write this for so long, but I guess I just really didn’t have the drive. I guess this was enough to really push me.
It is so important that we know who we aren’t and understand at the same time who we are. God has said so much about us. He loves us more than we could ever believe. I am so adamant about young women knowing their identity in Christ. If you never know what He says about you, you will never understand what the world should know about you. In this version, I didn’t do much exact quoting or include verses. If you want to know feel free to ask.
But ladies please understand, you don’t have to settle for less!!! You are a child of the MOST HIGH GOD! He has called you by name. He promises to give the choice nations as a ransom for you. He loves you!!! He made you, He formed you!!! Know your worth and walk in it!!! You were created to be above and not beneath!!! You are God’s greatest treasure and His choice gift! Ladies you were bought with a price, don’t make yourself cheap and easily available. We were the last in creation but the greatest. Men were made to give, we were made to be able to receive life and give life. Know your identity, don’t allow anyone to fool you!!! You are AWESOME!!! You are BEAUTIFUL!!! You are PRICELESS!!!
I’m not your average girl. I am so much more than what you see. I am more than two legs and a pretty face, you see. I am royalty. My Father is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He took the time to make me and form me of his own accord. He tells me I am His righteousness.
He told me that He would give the greatest and the best as a ransom for me. He told me that He loves me beyond my wildest imagination. He rejoices over me in song. He is mighty to save me! He loves me so much, He knows every hair on my head, it says He has counted them and written them in His book. It may not seem like much to you, but considering I know that He keeps track of my hairs, that’s pretty amazing to me. In case you didn’t know, I loose about 100 a day, He even knows those too.
You know it’s awesome to know He loves me so. Did you know that you and I can call Him at the same time and He can answer us both, without getting us confused? So forgive me if I seem a little strange or even lofty in my thinking, but He has made me peculiar and made me a treasure unto Himself. You see, you may not understand because I am a woman after His own heart. Don’t be dismayed, you’ve heard of me. He wrote 66 books as a love song just for me…My favorite one tells me that my price is far above rubies and that I am difficult to find. You see this all suits me just fine.
I’m happy to know that I was chosen to stand out. He picked me above all other to hold me close to Him. It’s great to know just how much I mean to Him. You see I may not be much to you, but to Him I am worth the life of His only son…So yes I am offended when you call me less than I am. It wouldn’t be a problem if I was blind to my identity, but you see who I am is a song that’s sang to me ever so sweetly late in the midnight hour to make sure I know the verse…
You may not know me, but I know me and that’s what matters…You see He told me that He has a purpose and a plan for me. He promised me that the work He began will be carried on to completion. He told me if I delight myself in Him that He would give me my every desire. So yes, you may be important, but you are not worth my promise! I am not a foolish one who gives up the promises for an empty guarantee…
You see, I am a Daddy’s girl! I am an eternal princess, you understand, my Daddy is the King. His kingdom will never end, so I’m sorry if you don’t understand, but I chose to be true to my identity, I can’t deny who I am if you don’t understand, I can’t even say I apologize…But me you see, I’m happy being not your ordinary girl. I like the mystery that surrounds me. I embrace the fact that you don’t know me and you don’t understand. Your questions and misunderstanding makes me laugh…don’t be offended, just look below the surface…
You can’t get to know me simply by looking, you see I have layers…I am fearfully and wonderfully made and my soul knows just that. You can’t convince me that I am less than I am…You see I'm not an average or ordinary girl…I am above and not beneath. I am the head and not the tail. My Father owns the cattle on a thousand hills so I have no lack and have no need to want. You see I am greatness, I am destiny! I am a child of the King. If you don’t understand don’t worry, you just weren’t meant to know that I’m not just your average girl…
