God’s Possession

“For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.” (Ephesians 1:4)

You can easily forget who you are.  Because we all live in a world that is directed by the culture we live in, and we often allow others to define our worth and usefulness.  When we allow others to put labels on us, or to decide where we belong in society, then we have a tendency to overlook who we are in Christ.

At the start of each new day, we need to take a moment to remind ourselves we are made in the image of God and that he loves us unconditionally (Genesis 1:27).  God does not examine us or judge us as the world does; rather, God encourages us, strengthens and guides us.  We are so much more than the world sees.  Yet, people do not accept us because the world recognizes and accepts only its own.

When we feel out of place with the rest of society, we need to remember that we belong to God (John 1:12).  We follow his plan and his purpose.  We are living for eternity, not for the fleeting ways of earth. Knowing who we are in God, we can go through our time in the world with confidence, assurance and boldness.

We have been set aside for a reason, despite what others might think or see.

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11)
