“I can’t change where I come from or what I’ve been through, so why should I be ashamed of what makes me, me?” When you know who you are, you know what to do.” “The more we focus on who we are in Christ , the less it matters who we were in the past, or even what happened to us.” “We do not behave out of our identity, we behave out of our understanding of our identity in Christ.” we all have times in life when we feel lost or down about ourselves. Sometimes negative  voices in the world seem to speak louder than the voice of God. I constantly need reminded of who Christ says I am and my identity in Him. Ephesians 1:7 .. in him we have redemption through his blood , the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's  grace. Galatians 2:20 says I have been crucified with christ  and I no longer live, but christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the son of God ,who loved me and gave himself for me. God has given us the greatest blessing of all - Himself. No matter what other blessing God may or may not choose to send into your life ,you can always  be confident that God himself will be with you, loving you ,and working everything in your life out for good purposes when you trust in Him to do so..
