25 Things God Says You Are

by | May 27, 2014 | Encouragement, Faith

25 Things God Says You AreWe can let almost anything try to tell us who we are.

Even a silly pair of shorts, as I shared in yesterday’s post.

Who or what are we listening to regarding our status, our worth, our image, and who we are?

  • Others’ opinions of us?
  • Circumstances and situations?
  • The scale in the bathroom?
  • The mirror?
  • What our parents said about us?
  • Our grades?
  • Our accomplishments or failures?
  • The car we drive or the things we own?
  • The size of our house?
  • Our attitude?
  • The little voice in our own head?

Why do we allow these things to have any sort of influence in our lives?? Not one of them truly reflects who we are. Not. One.

What truly matters is who we are in God’s eyes, and what God says about us.

After searching and studying scriptures, I came up with a personal list of who God says we are in Him. May it bless your heart today.

    Love this, Julie! Something I have to remind myself everyday-that I am who God says I am, no who others say I am. I’m going to bookmark this so I can write some of these verses down. 🙂 Thanks for sharing.

      That’s for sure, Abby. I struggle with that often, and as I was last week, that prompted me to create that list. It was refreshing to ponder on who God says I am from His Word! I pray it blesses you too! Have a great Tuesday!
