Have you ever wondered who God created you to be?

There’s one place in my granddaughter’s house where she searches for the answer and where magic seems to happen.

Her closet.

It is a place filled with princess dresses, sparkly shoes, and enough imagination to fill an entire kingdom. But what makes me smile the most isn’t just that she loves to dress up—it’s when she chooses to.

Whenever her mom sends her to her room to “change her attitude,” she often comes back wearing a completely different outfit. She is frustrated for a minute, and then she’s smiling and twirling through the house in a princess gown.

It’s amazing how children can step into a new role simply by changing what they wear. They don’t just put on a costume—they become the character they’re pretending to be.

That simple moment reminds me why stories matter so much.

A Story That Inspires the Answer: Who God Created You to Be

In this fruit-bearing book, Closet Full of Dreams, Cindy Saab delivers a heartwarming story that encourages young readers to discover who they are and confidently step into all God created them to be.

Rather than allowing circumstances or other people’s opinions to define them, children are invited to imagine the possibilities God has placed within them. The story inspires confidence, encourages creativity, and reminds readers that they were created with purpose.

It’s the kind of book children will enjoy reading again and again, while parents appreciate the meaningful conversations it opens about identity, calling, and God’s unique design for every child.

Why Christian Stories Matter

As Christian authors, we aren’t simply writing entertaining stories—we’re planting seeds of truth.

Every page has the opportunity to remind readers that they are loved, chosen, and created intentionally by God. Long before the world begins assigning labels, we can introduce children to the One who calls them His own.

Books like Closet Full of Dreams help children see themselves through God’s eyes instead of the world’s expectations.

The Greatest Identity Change: Who God Created You to Be

Watching my granddaughter dress as a princess reminds me that changing clothes can change how we feel for a little while.

A princess dress can make a little girl feel brave.

A doctor’s coat can make a child imagine helping others.

A firefighter’s helmet can inspire courage.

But those identities are temporary.

Who you were created to be is told in The Potter Series

In The Potter Series, you’ll discover who God created you to be. In these Books, each vessel is created for a unique purpose.

Little Pot grows fruit for the Potter. Likewise, Tea Pot serves others; Oil Lamp shines. And Small Jar uses its wounds to help others. God fills you with His Spirit. You’re a fruit-bearing vessel producing with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. You’re created to be a vessel that pours into others like a teapot. Like the oil lamp, you are created to be a vessel that carries God’s light and shines. And, as the small jar knows, even our cracks can be used by the Potter to help others.

The world often tells us who we are based on what we’re holding at the moment. Maybe a job, an attitude, or an assignment. But God sees something far greater.

He has made us His.

He lovingly shapes us, fills us with His presence, and invites us to become the people He designed us to be from the very beginning.

So the next time you watch a child open a closet full of costumes and dream about who they could become, remember the beautiful truth behind Saab’s story.

Changing outfits may transform a child’s imagination for an afternoon. But it’s fun to be all that God created you to be!
