Define me

I am not defined by my problems. I am defined by how I choose to respond to my problems.

I am not defined by my struggles. I am defined by my resilience.

I am not defined by the events in my life. I am defined by the content of my character.

I am not defined by my pain. I am defined by my joy.

I am not defined by how I feel, how I look, or how others perceive me. I am defined by my place as God's child, by the way God sees me, and by the motives he perceives in my heart.
