Who Am I?

I, Rebekah Grace Hall am. . .

-a child of God, His beloved daughter.

-big sister, little sister, and daughter

-a peacemaker, good at listening to friends who are struggling

-supportive of those I love (this might not apply to baseball)

-intelligent (my brains come from my dad - Mum still has all of hers)

-funny (see above)

-one who loves to talk through things, even hard issues, especially religious/theological, relational, and social issues. Political, not so much.

-a lover of calming music

-creative

-a big fan of mountains, pine trees, and hiking

-in love with Jesus, even when I feel like He's dropped me off in a desert and left me there alone (because I know, somewhere deep down, that He hasn't)

-more inclined towards a few close friendships than many surface friendships

-introverted

-an outdoors adventurer

-a reader

-a writer

-finding comfort in the Psalms these days

-wanting what God wants for me, even when it hurts

-in love with my family. Each one of my siblings is special to me in a different way, and I love the completeness I feel when I'm at home with all of them and Dad and Mum.

-a fan of dried fruit

-burdened for those who hurt like I do

-strong in communication skills

-weak in . . . well, many areas. Emotionally, and at managing the many feelings I have. Finding my value in who God says I am, not in what other people think.

-often insecure about my weight, appearance, etc.

-a big fan of bare feet

-compassionate and kind

-attentive to the needs of others

-hard-working, especially when I know it pleases others (also a weakness . . . I'm not as self-disciplined, in areas that wouldn't impact other people positively)

-not given to anger or rash decisions

-critical thinker

-often bossy, and disrespectful to my family (both stemming from thinking more highly of myself and what I do than I should)

-punctual

-an appreciative listener of piano and guitar playing

-still a little girl in many ways, but old beyond my years in other ways

-changed, from who I was last year

-grateful for Christ's sacrifice on the cross

-one who has dealt with the pain of loss and change a lot recently, especially in friendships. . . I know it's natural, but it aches to lose the closeness of relationships

-whatever the opposite of rebellious is (compliant?)

-thankful for her parents, because who they are has helped me form so much of who I am, especially in my faith

-undisciplined in many areas

-a good cook

-a bad seamstress

-one of those weird people who get satisfaction from cleaning house

-organized

-meticulous, good at paying attention to detail

-redeemed by Christ
