Read 2Corinthians 5:17-18 and Jeremiah 1:4-8.
As we try to answer the question “Who Am I?” we need to know what God wants for us. What does he think about us?
We also need to look at ourselves – our interests, abilities, weaknesses.
As we go about answering this question we also need to talk with other people. Hearing about our strengths and weaknesses from others often tells us things about ourselves that we overlook.
Leave several comments on your classmates’ blogs. Write about the qualities you appreciate in that person. Everything you write should be positive – no jokes or putdowns.
4And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
5Before I formed thee in the bowels of thy mother, I knew thee: and before thou camest forth out of the womb, I sanctified thee, and made thee a prophet unto the nations.
6And I said: Ah, ah, ah, Lord God: behold, I cannot speak, for I am a child.
7And the Lord said to me: Say not: I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee: and whatsoever I shall command thee, thou shalt speak.
8Be not afraid at their presence: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord.
