Your Identity

He lives in the gym and his hair stay faded. Late model car so they think he made it. But he's Christian, he gave his life, but he still ain't satisfied in the savior Christ. Still finds his identity in looks and cars. If he only knew that he ain't have to look so hard. If he looked in God though it may seem odd he be so satisfied he could leave it all.


So, I absolutely love this song! It's Identity by Lecrae. It makes me think. So many people today are consumed by how they look and what people think of them. Everyone has cared what someone thinks of them at least once. It's something that I've struggled with. I hate it! I know girls who starve themselves because they think they're fat and ugly because they don't have a guy telling them they're pretty. Come on girls! You're absolutely gorgeous! God created you in His image. Now, I don't know about you, but when I think of God, I don't think of Him as an ugly being. Accept yourself for who you are! God created you the way you are for a reason! God loves you for who you are! 


 
Got her hair done, toes and nails. Is that Her? Well it's hard to tell cause she's caked up in so much make up. It's like she's trying to make up for what she ain't. But she's a saint, but so confused cause she's been rejected by all these dudes that tell her on a scale of 10 she's a two. But that ain't true if she only knew, in Christ she is loved, she secure and accepted. She'll never be rejected by God who's elected her. Her beauty is her Godliness and she ain't gotta try to flaunt it cause it's obvious.


In America, our society tells us we need the latest thing. New makeup. New clothes. All these things to be beautiful and accepted. God loves us no matter what. No makeup and in our sweats. I'm not saying that dressing nice and wearing makeup and doing our hair and nails is wrong, but it shouldn't be our focus. If You keep your focus on God and you have a relationship with Him, His light will shine through and your true beauty will be obvious. 


Identity is found in the God we trust. Any other identity will self destruct.


Your identity should be found in God. If you try to be anything else except the person God has created you to be, it'll crash. Sooner or later. Is it really worth it?


I'm not the shoes I wear. I'm not the clothes I buy. I'm am not the house I live in. I'm not the car I drive. I'm not the job I work. You can't define my worth by nothing on God's green earth, my identity is found in Christ.


You aren't the shoes you wear, the clothes you buy, the house you live in, the car you drive, or the job you work. You are you. The person God has created you to be. You are of infinite worth. No matter what! Just be who God created you to be!
