Who do you think you are? It can be a question of self-accusation, or an entry point into a new level of confidence in your identity in Christ. Every challenge you face to your true identity in Christ can be your entry point to a new level of relationship with Him, and a discovery of who you really are because of that. Your true identity will never manifest from a place of fear. Only in the place of perfect love. Identity and destiny are both relational and functional, just let relationship take the lead.
Follow Through Question:
- Think of an area of your life where you feel safer being small and unnoticed. Imagine that Jesus has slipped a note in your pocket to encourage you. What might it say?

Is this a good idea, or a God idea? How do I know what to say "yes" to and what to say "no" to? All questions of destiny are questions of identity. A “need” can never be the DETERMINING factor in our responses because the needs of this world are endless. The fear of unmet needs can never be our p...
