Who are you? This simple yet profound question reminds us to pause and reflect on our lives. The Bible teaches us that God knows we were formed from dust and that we will return to it one day.
This truth calls us to live humbly, recognizing that our lives are fragile and finite. As believers, understanding our origin and destination should inspire us to live in a way that honors God.
Today, I just want to encourage you to continue embracing humility and live purposefully in the light of this truth.
Key Takeaway to Who Are You?
- Who Are You: God created us from dust, and He knows our limitations. We must live humbly, acknowledging that our strength and purpose come from Him.

The verse also emphasizes humility, urging us to live in dependence on God.

Reflection on Who Are You?
Who are you? This question points us to the truth about our identity to God. We are His creation, made from dust, and we are completely dependent on Him.
Psalm 103:14 reminds us that our time on earth is short, and this should shape how we live each day. As believers, we are called to live in humility, recognizing that all we have comes from God.
The Bible teaches in Ecclesiastes 12:7,
Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it.
This verse mirrors the theme of today’s devotional, reinforcing that our earthly bodies are temporary. However, what we do with our lives now will impact eternity.
Living in humility means acknowledging that our strength and achievements are not our own but gifts from God. It also means treating others with love and respect, knowing that everyone is created in God’s image.
Pride and self-sufficiency often distract us, but reflecting on our fragile nature helps us realign our hearts with God’s purpose.
Today, focus on living a life that pleases God. Seek to honor Him in your words, actions, and thoughts.
Remember that every moment is a gift from Him. Let this understanding motivate you to serve others, forgive quickly, and depend fully on God.
Humility doesn’t mean thinking less of yourself but recognizing your need for God in all things.
