"I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me."
Galatians 2:20 NIV
Paul gives us a different way to come up with our identity. In the verse above, he says that the very core of who we are is connected to Jesus Christ. He provides our identity. And because of that, we are accepted despite our achievments (or lack of them). We are given an identity that cannot be lost because of Christ's achievement on our behalf. As you go about your day, be reminded that He is in you and you in Him. It is because of Him that you are who you are. Be the best today.
Father, as I go about my day today, remind me that I am in Christ. WHelp me to remember that, in the end, that is what defines me. Give me the clarity of mind to remember that he is ultimately my identity.
