Seeing myself?A question most strange.I see myself human;Not swiftly to change.I am as I amIn His image, though rough.I happily thinkThat that's quite enough!If pressed for precisionOr an answer more clear;I see myself strivingAnd holding wisdom most near.

I feel like i am living my life righteous, although i think that i make mistakes.I have felt the spirit of GodBut i grieved the spirit by following my mindSo i think about it alot that the spirit may not come back to meI let the devil tempt my mind into thinking i may die and i panicMy mind isnt as strong as i thought it wasI just want my spirit to grow and my mind to be strengthened to resist the temptation of the devil.I know where my heart is.I just need to get my mind right.

I see myself as a sinner. A price of bloodshed given for me.

Ya Vickie, we are all sinners and fallen short of Gods glory, but we have been redeemed, we are created in His image. Strive forward and do not look back, if you sin just repent and keep on moving forward because those who look back on their sins are not worthy to inherit the Kingdom. Forget your old life, your old self, and think about all that Christ in you, the Holy Spirit, has done to change you and how God wants to change you, let Him take leadership in your life.I see myself as a child of God, but not yet having manifested being a child of God here on earth fully, else I'd be raising up dead people everywhere.

This post made me sad I will pray that you will someday see yourself as God does, and not how satan wants you to.
Thank you for prayer, watchman, When I can go one day without a sin coming forth out of me, and walk in the fullness of Christ, no longer being corruptiblethan I will have great joy.

Thank you for your thoughts. It is reading the words of God that I see the corruptible person in me daily, that constantly reminds me of the blood that had to be shed for me. I look forward to the time just ahead of us, that brings Christ back to earth and changes me from corruptible to incorruptible. No longer needing to repent daily, no longer sinning daily but being changed into perfection that last.
