Do You Know Who You Are?

Some spend a lifetime trying to discover “who they are.” They enter into careers, relationships, and pursue other endeavors in an attempt to find themselves. Even individuals who have many accomplishments sometimes struggle with their identities.

This leads us to an important truth: One’s identity cannot be defined by outward activities, but by an internal actualization. As a Christian, “Do You Know Who You Are?”

The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master’s crib: but Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider. Isaiah 1:3 (KJV)

As a nation, Israel forgot their identity. They forgot that they were God’s people, and this led them to engage in activities that did not reflect their connection to Him.

As Christians, we have to define “who we are” by “whose we are.” Regardless of what we do or accomplish in this life, we have to do it in light of Christ and our relationship with Him. In doing so, you will not, like Israel, get off track. Do you know who you are as a Christian?

Prayer of the Week:

“Lord, I thank you that I am a new creature in Christ On today, help me to know who I am in Him fully. Amen.”
