Who do you look LIKE!!! .. Indentity Crisis

When we welcome Jesus into our lives as Saviour and Lord, then we not only enter into this new relationship with him, but also with his Father. He shares with us this unique sonship. "To all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—children born not of natural descent, not of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God" (John 1:12, 13). It is in entering into this relationship with Jesus that we begin to discover who we really are.

Jeremiah 29:11: 11For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. -God says I know what i think about you. His thoughts are always of peace and not evil.

God  has to check our ID to make sure we look like what his word says. We have to understand the power of loving God. When we love God, we live it out. In response, he reminds us how he sees us. When you believe in his power, you can believe in his love, and he will…









We have to be what we are supposed to be in our life, no matter where things may take us. Our identity is not defined by or economic level, our social status, or who we are connected with in the world. It is defined by God who has his hand on our lives.
