Chris' prayer: Shawn McDonald's "Beautiful"

What am I?
I realize that I'm not breaking any ground here, that philosophy and spirituality have been asking and attempting to answer this question for centuries, but this is really the heart of it, isn't it? Everything flows from the ways in which we answer this question.

If we are able to somehow stumble onto the answer that we are children of God, uniquely and wonderfully made, think about what that means. Think about what that means for how we act, how we treat others, how we live our lives. But if we find our worth in other things, whether that be material possessions, titles, careers, the lens which we view life through is drastically changed.

I need to spend more time dwelling on this question, and allowing it to dwell in me. There is much to be had here.
