Oratio Divina: Images Of The World

The identities I cling to
images of the world
for fear of who I am
without them
or that I will disappear
into nothingness
unseen
unheard
unfelt
unloved
but God’s promise
is that I am
before this world
I am
beyond this world
I am
~Robert Van Valkenburgh

Reflection:
Where do you cling to false identities out of fear, and how might God be inviting you to rest in your true identity in Him?

Scripture:
“For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.” — Colossians 3:3
