Sometimes I struggle with my true identity, as in who I am in Christ. Because I have been battling food addiction since childhood, I often define myself by what I struggle with. It doesn’t help that many sins are private and only the persons closest to those people know it. I literally wear mine like a beacon; stretch marks and all. I know it’s what people see first. Does that mean God only sees me this way too?

I can feel you shaking your heads at this rhetorical question. Surely I’ve walked with the Father long enough to know the truth. Right? Yet many days I live like an orphan with no Father to speak of. Negative thoughts plague me and I rarely answer them with truth. Most of the time I rely on my own thoughts and inner strength to see me through. My internal dialogue birthed from my flesh is flawed and dangerous. It draws me away from God and strengthens my sin nature.

Not to mention it feeds my addiction and depression a steady diet of despair. I want this to stop! I need this to change. I am going to do things a little different and I invite you to
join me.

I am going to ask God to help me see myself the way He sees me. But I’m not going to stop there? I am going to write down some key verses and put them on my mirror, my bedroom wall and fridge. Every time I see one, I’m going to stop and read and agree with God. I know this will weird some people out. Heck, I can’t believe I’m writing it.

Truth be told ya’ll what have we got to lose? If what we’ve been doing hasn’t changed us, let’s try something different. The ultimate goal is to let the Father rewrite our internal script. This has everything to do with finding out who we are in Christ and living it out loud. This is not a magic formula but it will heal some very broken thought patterns if we let Him. Who doesn’t need a little thought life overhaul? My starting point will be this scripture.

“Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life”. (John 5:24)

I’m going to write this down and feast on this until it becomes true for me.

I wish you well on your journey to who you really are. As you find healing, share with others in need by simply praying your new found truth over them. We may just change the corner of our world one new thought at a time!

Some of the questions plaguing my thought life are:
What keeps me from reflecting my true spiritual identity?
How do we shed the layers of lies that keep us lost and broken our identity hidden?
Is it too late to change?
How do I claim and fully live out my birthright in Christ?
Is Jesus really Lord over ALL of me?
