Many at times I ask myself this question who I am?
What is my purpose of existence?
Why has he created me?
For what purpose and reason?
Why has he created me and brought me into this planet earth?
Before we were born into the earth he already know us he knows the complexion of our skin, our thought and behavior, he knows our today and future... he knows what is going to become of us. See what he said to Jeremiah "Before I formed thee in the belly, I knew thee, and before thou came forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations" (Jer.1 vs. 5). Does Jeremiah knew that he will be a prophet? But he has been living on the planet earth for years. Does he recognize who he was to the world? Did he know that he was born to be a prophet? These questions ponder my mind each time I read the book of Jeremiah.
Let us compare the story line of Peter and Jeremiah, Peter was called by Jesus to become fisher of man but all his life he had no privilege to read or write and lack the confident to stand and face the crowd.
Peter was a qualify and experience fisher man he knows the entire secret about fishing and he prosper in it, but at that time did he know who he was? Was he fulfilled while been a fisher man? If he was fulfilled why did he hearken to the first call of Jesus?
Some may ask was he fulfilled while he was with Jesus.
Did he know who he was while he was with him?
From the outlook of things Peter find fulfillment and knows who he was while he was with Jesus. He found out that he was not to rear fish but to bring forth soul into the kingdom. His first sermon as a disciple gave him the courage that he was working towards the will of God. When he was able to stand before men and women, young and old, feeble and strong... to proclaim the good news of the lord Jesus and converted thousands of soul to the kingdom.
If God knows us so well, what about me as a personality do I know who I am? Think about this for a while don’t let this thought leave you until you get a positive result of who you are.
Unless a man knows who he is, he can find the right key to unlock his destiny.
