(Michael Boggs / Mike Weaver)
You see yourself in the mirror of the temporary
And you think that your worth is something to be achieved
When your value really is a question of identity
Has it ever crossed your mind
Who you are to Me
You're the precious child that I created
Who you are to Me
Bought with a price you're My Beloved
Who you are to Me
Open your eyes and I'll show you how to see what I see
If you would just believe that you are who you are to Me
Defusing the bomb instilled within the minds of children
You're the life inside a body that refuses to believe
A revelation of My love is waiting just to be received
Won't you let Me show you
Who you are to Me
And I love you so much that I crossed the great divide and
I love you so much that I sent My only Son to die
And there's no one who could ever take your place in My heart
I want you to know that I love you right where you are
Song Description:
Who are you? What is your identity? How are you defined? By the things you do; by the things you own? According to the Bible we are defined by who Jesus is, and what He did for us. If we could only see ourselves the way God sees us, it would change our lives. (Mike Weaver)

This site has been almost completely taken over by bashers and saying that this is a spirituality and religion forum is just plalin rediculous.
Read your posts people - The person posting this has a HUGE right to do so. Her song was spiritual/religious in nature and I think the intention behind it was good natured. No one was quoting scripture at you or saying you were wrong. NO that is not what took place here and all you bashers should be ashamed of yourselves.
I think a lot of you owe this person an apology. Talk about intolerance! Wow.

God's children weren't so precious when for a hundred years the pedophiles that God had called to the priesthood were molesting them. God never intervened. If a mortal did that they would be in jail. Many religious people see only what they want to see. and ignore the rest.

Dear Asker,
I c u got a lot of -ve feedbacks.. I know what u say is true.. I feel it and I can say that in the worst periods in my life it was this mere fact that kept me going.
Dear Repliers,
I know u may not like/agree with what was said.. But had u never been convinced with something that turned not 2 b true? This may just be one.. I am not telling u to become Christians.. I just suggest that somethings deserve reconsudering.. I would say, Just open up ur heart and follow it!

This is sweet, and I am glad you have a loving heart to show people that God is truly love!
But the Bible actually says that only God's children are those who are born again-- those who love and honor Him.
He says the rest, who reject Him are of the devil....I know that sounds horrible, but it means that they are not born again - and have not yet been forgiven, so therefore they are in sin, and whoever goes against God, is working for the devil.
John 8:44
You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
-We must continue to show them the truth, and pray the Lord will save them, and turn them from their sin and that they would follow the Lord. In John 8 Jesus speaks of the children of Abraham (those who are of God) and the children of the devil ( those who are not of God)
John 8:47 (speaking to someone who is not saved)
He who belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God."
p.s however more children of God are being saved, so therefore there are still many children of God out there who do not know it yet! But not "all" are.

I'm sorry, but I don't believe in the bible. I do not need to change my life, I'm quite happy with who I am. Thank You for your concern. You can believe what you want but I am happy with me already.

That's strange....because someone posted a Christian children's website the other day which clearly stated only Christians were god's children. So, which one do I believe?
