Your identity is not determined by your past, your feelings, your failures, what someone called you, or even what you sometimes call yourself. If you are in Christ, God has already told you who you are. You are chosen. You are adopted. You are forgiven. You are not condemned. You are a new creation. You are God's workmanship. You belong to Christ. You are loved. You are not abandoned. God is still working in you.
