My True Identity
I read this a couple days ago from a daily devotional I receive from Lifetime Guarantee Ministries. Such a good reminder to me of things I've been learning these past few months.
My True Identity
I have an identity that cannot be marred
By the circumstances of life.
It does not fade, nor age, nor fail,
No matter how great the strife.
It grows! It becomes more beautiful!
It defies all the world can give!
For it has its roots in Him who died
Who was raised
And through whom I live.
But how to live without worldly acceptance?
Without recognition or fame?
How to live with the patterns I've built
And not be a "winner" in the game?
How?
By knowing who I am,
By accepting His truth about me.
By grasping, clutching, tenaciously clinging
To the truth I have come to see.
Sweet victory--sweet trumphal fragrance,
Confident, persuaded, content to be.
No longer controlled by who I was
But to live!
Accepted!
In my true identity.
