What am I to you?

Who am I to God?

Not what can I do for God or what are my gifts, but who am I to God? Who am I when I am nothing but me, when I am naked and vulnerable before God? Not what does the world say that I am, but who does He say that I am?

Jesus was asking this very question and he received the definitive answer at his baptism. We can be confident that the same answer will be given to us, that we are his 'sons and daughters, in whom He is well pleased.'
