Who God Made Me

A woman commented to a friend of mine, "God made you the way you are and that's the way you're supposed to be." It got me thinking...

I've been many things during different phases of life. I was a drug user. I was a smoker. I was a vegetarian. I am none of those things now. So, I pondered, was I "who God made me" when I was a meth using, chainsmoking vegetarian? Or am I today "who God made me", a coffee drinking, filet mignon loving, soccer mom? The answer must clearly be both. "Who God made me" shouldn't be judged by whether I fit the mold, follow the current or adhere to the regulations of the religious right. "Who God made me" is the ever-changing, always growing person I am on the inside.

Of one thing I am certain, if you're busy judging "who God made me" based on what you see on the outside, then who God made you is too shallow. ~
