Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” — Oscar Wilde
I don’t know about you, but I’ve tried to be someone else many times in my life. It never proved to be of any benefit. I wanted to be the older boy with a nice flat top and gamble like James Garner. My hair wouldn’t cooperate and I lost many a quarter at the poker table.
Does the Bible address Oscar’s statement? Glad you asked.
Psalm 139:14
“I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Your works are wonderful; I know that full well.”
Jeremiah 1:5
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart.”
Psalm 139:13
“For You created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother’s womb.”
Don’t look foolish and be a loser. Discover why God made you and what He can do with you. Give it some consideration.
