"Who am I?"

 Three simply complex words, "who am I?" but a phrase we can barely answer...

Philosophers, Scholars, literature buffs all have meanings and definitions for this phrase, scientist too. But the one person who struggles to find the meaning of this phrase is us...

 "Who am i?"

There's a teenager sitting in her room, painting the white walls with her eyes. She inspires the bland walls with her imagination of what she thinks Monalisa should have looked like. She draws better figures than Picasso's failed art. She has sat there for hours trying to figure out who she is, i mean the literature assignment isn't going to complete itself! But she can't seem to find any description of herself. At 16 you would think she would have figured out atleast abit about herself but all she can come up with is, her name.

"Who am i?"

Seems simple enough for anyone to answer, i mean its just 3 words what else could it be...


 At 35years of age, a succesful career and a wife and kids, a man decides to go for a sex change. He decides to leave his wife of 18years and marry a 21year old girl. And people wonder what is wrong with such men? 

Its simple really, they still don't know who they are....


Here I am, am still trying to figure out a full definition of who i am, but so far this is what i have come to learn:

I am not just my name...

I am not just my country, Kenya...

I am not just my tribe, Kisii...

I am not my friends or a figmented me...

I am NOT a doormat...

I am not forgotten...

but this is what I am;


I am GOD's child...

I am a friend to JESUS...

I am Loved...

I am a forgiven sinner...

I am a seventh-day adventist CHRISTIAN....

I am found...

I am peaceful...

I am a workaholic...

I am not a broken corpse...

I am FREE...

I am HAPPY...

I am cherished...

I am respected...

I am trustworthy...

I am nothing without GOD...

"I can do all things through CHRIST who strengthens me"

"I trust in GOD in all my ways and acknowledge HIM, and JESUS directs my paths..."

I am fun...

I am poised...

I am DEFINETLY BEAUTIFUL....

I am striving to be a great friend like JESUS is to me....

I am faulty...

I am under construction...

I am analytical...

I am quiet...

I am learning...

I am 5:14. “‘You are the light of the
world. A city on a hill cannot be
hidden. Neither do people light
a lamp and put it under a bowl.
Instead they put it on its stand,
and it gives light to everyone in
the house. In the same way, let
your light shine before men, that
they may see your good deeds and
praise your Father in heaven.’” 

“Let them
see your good deeds and praise
your Father in heaven!”

 I am on a mission, to spread the gospel for CHRIST's soon return....

"who am I?" I am still finding out slowly but i thank GOD i have a starting point...

See, when I say i am loved, im not alone...I know many out there need to know they are loved, but I realize my deficiency, i am just human and i can't love the way GOD can love... JESUS loved so much it killed HIM, imagine what HE did and is still doing for you and me...

When we begin to answer the question "who am I?", lets all turn and ask GOD, "who do you want me to be?..."

I am DEFINETLY NOT MY PAST...*


We are making a mark!!!*
