Hey Fam,

This next series of Blogs will focus on the identity of believers. We'll be looking at key verses to understanding who we are as believers.

Ephesians 1:4-5 "just as He [God] chose us in Christ before the foundations of the world to be holy and blameless before Him in love. He destined us for adoption as his children through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of His will."


We often confuse the bad choices we make, and the painful experiences we endure as labels which shape and define our present and future.

Here's God's truth: We were each hand picked by the Creator of all, BEFORE HE CREATED ANY OF THIS, for the purpose of being holy (set apart) and blameless in His sight.

• You are not what you've done.
• You are not what you've experienced.
• You are God's chosen child, whom He loves.

He showed His love through Jesus, who gave up His position of ruling Heaven, took up the form of His beloved creation, fought through every temptation known to man and never bit, endured torture, betrayal, and death -- BY CHOICE, just so that we can spend eternity with Him, and live lives on this planet free from our, painful past.

Allow this Truth to saturate your thoughts, feelings, and soul. If you truly grasp this, it will free you from fear, doubt and pain like you wouldn't believe.

Next time, I'll tell you how I know.

God loves you, and so do I.
