Wow! I haven't posted in a few months and finally I have something to say The subject is identity and the problem is a lack of one. I haven't posted in so long because of my lack of identity. To think and to overthink so much that it stops your progress is a sure sign that you are suffering from the same identity situation as myself.
In my head, I feel like I know how others perceive me, some good things and some bad. I act different around each person to try to change the perception I think they have of me until it would become what I want it to be. The problem is that all of my plan is based on speculation and not on facts, paranoia and not peace. The reason that this is beginning to bother me so much is because it is beginning to hinder my spiritual growth.
My identity should not come from anyone else other than the One that created me. I should define myself by all that He did and all that He is doing through me and for me. I am ready to LIVE, and be true to myself and not apologize for who I am and who I'm not. I can't live up to the expectations of others but I can definitely soar above my own if I focus on my limitless God.
So how about it? Are you ready too? The focus on being real and not popular, pleasing to God rather than man?
Those are the ones that will bust out of the Identity Box and become glorious!
"For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God." Romans 8:19

Your true identity is in Christ. Seek to grab hold of that and all efforts to please man will cease. "It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man." Psa. 118:8
