Who I am...

I got the following from a devotional called Girlfriends of God. Sometimes I run all the time...always on the go and not focused on WHO I really am. I should remember that even though I am a wife, a mother, a daughter, a friend, a sister, a preschool teacher at church, a knitter, an aunt, a photographer, a blogger, and many others...that I should find my true Identity in who Christ thinks I am...
