what is your identity?
Ephesians 1:4-5, 7, 11 NLT
[4] Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. [5] God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.
[7] He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins.
[11] Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for he chose us in advance, and he makes everything work out according to his plan.

What defines you? Is it your job? Is it your talent? What makes you you? As for me, my identity is with Christ. I am a child of God. In Phil Wickam's song called, "I Believe," there is a line that I just love: "No, I'll never be Ashamed, of the gospel of Jesus Christ, how could I ever walk away, from the one who saved my life?" Listen here.

Ephesians 1:7-8, 11 NLT
[7] He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins. [8] He has showered his kindness on us, along with all wisdom and understanding.
[11] Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for he chose us in advance, and he makes everything work out according to his plan.
