Christ, who IS your life

nauseous, anxious, defeated.
my heart easily hosts such enemies.
but i am part of the beloved.
what a silly thing to walk around hopeless.
i am part of the elect.
i have been tosses around like a wave
and for a moment forgotten who i am.
i am God's daughter, whom He never forsakes.
my life was brought into being by Him, through Him and for Him.
He defines it as successful.
i must preach to myself the position i have been given.
i am redeemed. completely. it is finished.
and i must have a life hidden in Christ, becaus ei have died.
"When Christ, who is my life appears" i will be glorified,
living in the very real hope i look to in the here and now.
