Identity...where do you get yours?

Keep your identity in check-know your value is in God alone. Don't let your all...become your call- confusing who you are with what you do. A crisis is guaranteed when there's not a clear line between what you do and...who you are. If the call is removed- your identity is removed; resulting in a vacuum of emptiness. If you're not careful, the things you do in love and with honor become your identity like... marriage, family, parenting, career, ministry, volunteering, etc. These are important calls, but they don't identify...who you are in life-they identify...what you do in life. Christ is your identity-His love completes you...nothing else! Get with God-ask Him to search your heart and keep you balanced in honoring the call He assigned you, but not allow you to make it your identity. Everything is subject to change in life...but not God or His love for you. God will never let go of your hand...never, never, never! then when things change, and they will-your identity and value remain the same. Listen closely, your identity is in Christ exclusively; things will change and when they do-you will know it doesn't mean your value has changed...it just means your course has changed. Keep your identity in check-know your  value is in God alone...then you can relax and enjoy the journey! (Ps 136:26, Ps 139:23-24, Col 2:10, Heb 13:5, Jer 29:11) 1/5/13CIFL-LMM
