Week 2: "Wait a minute... Who are you"?

Wait a Minute… Who Are You?

Remember the kid from the late 1980s video “You on Kazoo”? He walks away from the screen, pauses, slowly turns back, and asks the now-famous question: “Wait a minute… who are you?”

People still laugh about that moment today—and honestly, it’s pretty funny. But if we’re being real for a second, it’s also a surprisingly important question.

So let me ask you the same thing: Who are you?

Not the version of you shaped by social media, old mistakes, other people’s opinions, or even your own doubts. I mean the deeper question—the one that asks who you are in Christ.

Sometimes the best way to answer that question is to ask it in different tones. Curious. Thoughtful. Honest. When you sit with it long enough, something beautiful happens: you begin to realize you might have more confidence in your identity than you thought.

Scripture reminds us exactly where that identity comes from.

2 Corinthians 5:17 (TPT) tells us that “if anyone is united with the Anointed One, that person is a new creation. The old life is gone, and a new life has begun.”

Galatians 3:26 (TPT) says, “You have all become true children of God by faith in Jesus the Anointed One.”

And Colossians 1:13–14 (TPT) declares that God has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of His beloved Son, where we experience freedom and forgiveness.

So who are you?

You are a child of God.
A new creation.
Someone rescued from darkness and brought into His light.
Someone who has true freedom because of faith in the Holy One.

If your first answers included labels like failure, not good enough, forgotten, or stuck in the past—those voices don’t get the final say. God’s perspective does.

And His perspective calls you saved by grace, innocent through Christ, and deeply precious in His sight.

So today, open your heart a little wider. Make room for the way God sees His creation—you.

And remember who you are.
