 Whose Am I? A Journey to Understanding My Divine Belonging

In a world filled with uncertainty and shifting identities, there is one question that anchors my soul. Whose am I? The answer to this profound question is found in the sacred texts of the Torah and the New Testament, which reveal the eternal truth that I belong to God—my Heavenly Father, who lives within me, and in whom I live. We are inseparable; we are one.

The Torah, the foundation of our faith, begins with the creation narrative in Genesis, where God speaks the world into existence. But more than creating the universe, God also creates man in His image and breathes life into him Genesis 2:7. This divine breath signifies that I am more than just flesh and blood; I am a living soul with a piece of the Divine within me. My identity is rooted in God, my Creator, who fashioned me with purpose and love.

In the New Testament, Jesus affirms this divine relationship by teaching us to call God "Abba, Father" (Romans 8:15). This term of endearment reflects the intimate and loving relationship that God desires to have with each of us. As His daughter, I am not just a creation; I am a beloved child of the King, cherished and held close to His heart.

The Scriptures teach that God does not dwell in temples made by human hands but lives within us (1 Corinthians 3:16). This indwelling of the Holy Spirit is the fulfillment of God’s promise to be with us always. It is through this divine presence that I experience oneness with my Heavenly Father. I live in Him, and He lives in me—a mystery so profound yet so deeply comforting.

In Deuteronomy 30:14, the Torah reminds us, “The word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart so you may obey it.” This verse echoes the closeness of God, who has planted His Word within me. He is not a distant deity but a present and active force in my life, guiding and sustaining me through His Spirit.

Jesus, in the Gospel of John, further explains this unity when He prays, “That they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us” (John 17:21). This prayer reveals the deep desire of God for us to be in perfect union with Him, reflecting the oneness of the Father and the Son.

Throughout the Torah and the New Testament, God repeatedly reassures us of His unfailing love and commitment. One of the most profound promises is founD in Deuteronomy 31:6, where God declares, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." This covenant promise is echoed in the New Testament when Jesus assures His disciples, “And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age”.

As His daughter, these promises are the foundation of my faith. God’s love is not conditional or fleeting; it is steadfast and eternal. He has promised to provide for all my needs, to be my refuge in times of trouble, and to guide me along the path of righteousness. The Psalmist beautifully captures this when he writes, “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want” (Psalm 23:1).

Understanding whose I am transforms the way I live my life. I am not defined by the world’s standards or the circumstances I face; I am defined by the love of my Heavenly Father. His love is the lens through which I see myself and the world around me.

God’s provision is not just material; it is the fullness of life that comes from being in relationship with Him. It is the peace that surpasses all understanding, the joy that is unspeakable, and the hope that is unwavering. As His daughter, I can rest in the assurance that I am always in His care.

So, Whose am I? I am God’s beloved daughter, created in His image, filled with His Spirit, and united with Him in perfect oneness. He lives within me, and I live within Him, a sacred bond that can never be broken. His promises are my assurance, His love is my identity, and His presence is my constant companion.

In this truth, I find my peace, my purpose, and my place in this world. I am His, and that is enough.
