Reflection

WHO AM I
By: CASTING CROWNS

Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the Bright and Morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart

Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You're

Chorus:
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours

Who Am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love and watch me rise again
Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me

I am Yours
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
'Cause I am Yours
I am Yours


Well, I just remember our recollection held at the Sacred Heart that was facilitated by sir Benjamin and a sister. I am a member of Iglesia Ni Cristo and i study here in SMU--a catholic school. I actually felt uneasy in joining the said activity but since it's required for us to pass a certain subject, I participated, of course, still with pangs of hesitation.
thanks God! there was something worth remembering in the activity. the lyrics alone in the song, you can come up with an idea about what i am talking here.
They—the facilitator—related to us the PARABLE OF THE SEED AND THE SOWER. I can't quite remember the whole story. We were instructed to find “treasures” (I actually do not know how to call it and can't remember what they call it).
I chose the “PATH” where there was a rocky, good soil and one other I can't remember. We had to explicate why we chose what we chose. Ours was path represents what we have went through, what we have experienced and realized. There were people who caused us to change and circumstances that shaped us to what we are now. Slip-ups and mistakes we failed to rectify but at least considered contributory in our becoming. Above all these bitter fragments of life, there is someone who never forgets us. We may strengthen our relationship to HIM—Lord GOD.
