Wednesday Wisdom No. 21

identity
Identity

No need to search for
myself.
No need to grasp for
meaning
for my life
or purpose
for what I do.
No need to hope for inner peace,
that sense of well-being
for which every heart
longs.
No need to hope that
someone or something
will make me
happy
or give me joy.
I no longer need any
of these things because
grace
has connected me to you
and you have named me
your child.

~ Paul Tripp, New Morning Mercies

  1. Thanks for the reminder, Anya! It's been a while since I've "talked" to you - I'm praying you're having a wonderful, joy-filled year!

    1. You're so welcome, Ariel! Thanks for stopping by! It's been a crazy and rather stress-filled summer, but with many hidden blessings. Hope you've had an amazing summer. :)
