"The more we let God take us over, the more truly ourselves we become - because He made us. He invented us. He invented all the different people that you and I were intended to be. . .It is when I turn to Christ, when I give up myself to His personality, that I first begin to have a real personality of my own."
C.S. Lewis
My New Year's Resolution, which I'm starting this week , is to find out more about who I am in Christ, just how valuable I am to God, and why I am just the way God intended me to be. After all, if I have a willing heart it's God's job to refine me. Let's all make it a point to spend more time learning and focusing on our worth in Christ and less time comparing ourselves to the world's standards.
Remember the work He's already accomplished in us, His Word calls it good! That's coming from God, who knows what some thing good is. The work He still needs to accomplish in us, He is full of grace and patience to do so...He gives us a whole life time. Keep your eyes on that truth and not the lies Satan throws at us that we're not valuable.
Philippians 1:6 (NASB95)
6 For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.
