Who Made You Who You Are?

Who Made You Who You Are?

When I had my sheep, I was happy, and I made those around me happy. People saw me coming and welcomed me, he thought. But now I’m sad and alone. I’m going to become bitter and distrustful of people because one person betrayed me. I’m going to hate those who have found their treasure because I never found mine. And I’m going to hold on to what little I have, because I’m too insignificant to conquer the world. – The Alchemist, Paulo Coelho

What made you into the kind of person you are today? No doubt, your past experiences have had a significant influence on you, and so are the people who’ve touched your life.

But what if we experience difficult situations? What if we give our hearts to people who’d only crush it and throw it carelessly away? Would such people define who we should become? Should our bitter experiences make us into bitter persons as well?

Let no betrayal hinder you from trusting yet again.
Let no foolish words damage the way you see yourself.
And let no hurt, no matter how painful, make you shrink from achieving your God-given destiny!

Who made you who you really are?

Today, let us not tell our God about our big problems, but instead, tell our problems about our big God.
