A friend of mine said he was meditating on the passage in Matthew 16 where Jesus asked the 12 who people were saying He was. In the process, my friend Greg had the inspiration to ask the question of Jesus, "Lord, who do you say I am?" What an amazing thing to ask our Beloved! What will He say? Who we are in His eyes is everything, and to hear Him tell us will be invigorating, challenging, and fill our hungry souls with His perspective! It is something I am going to start asking Him. I would rather find out who He says I am, more than what others, or even I myself think I am. As St. Augustine said, "...You, Oh Lord, know us better than we know ourselves." What a mysterious thing is our faith!
