That's been me lately. Over tears (remember, I'm a girl) and talks with my {amazing} Husband, I realized that through situations the devil was ultimately trying to attack my identity.
We have all asked these questions, haven't we? Yeah, maybe not out loud; but in our heads it's been asked. Lots of times. :)
"Who am I?!"
A strong identity is not found in a job, a guy, a shopping trip (as fun as that is!), a certain season of life, or even in making other people happy.
"I count everything as loss compared to the possession of the priceless privilege....of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord and of progressively becoming more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him [of perceiving and recognizing and understanding Him more fully and clearly].....And that I may actually be found and known as in Him..."from philippians 3 (amplified bible)
We are only secure in who we are when we know who He is. Who He is. And then we find ourselves in Him.
"Instead of being the girl that got her identity and worth out of being the perfect little Christian, or her career being exactly what she though it should be, or being in shape, or having the right relationship (fill in the blank. You get the idea.) Instead, I am choosing to be the girl that wakes up to the finished work of Christ daily." -Dara Maclean
