God’s Love Language: I love Myself
HERE ARE SOME FACTS ABOUT YOUR NEW IDENTITY:
- You are now a child of God and part of God’s family (John 1:12).
- You are a new creation in Christ. The old has gone, the new has come (2 Corinthians 5:17).
- You have been justified by faith in Christ and have peace with God…. Thus, you no longer have to work to try to make yourself right before God (Romans 5:1).
- You have been completely forgiven through faith in Christ and His death and resurrection (Ephesians 1:7).
- You are completely loved by God in Christ (Romans 5:8, John 17:23, John 3:16).
- You are “in Christ” (John 17:21, Colossians 3:3).
- You are on your way to heaven (John 3:16, John 3:36).
- Nothing can separate you from the love of Christ (Romans 8:35-39).
- The Holy Spirit now indwells you forever (John 14:16, Ephesians 1:14).
- You have a new purpose in life — to live for Christ and to know and share His love with others (Philippians 1:21, Philippians 3:13-14, Colossians 2:6-7).
“You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven” Matthew 5:14-16.
In other words, concentrate now on living fully for Christ. In living fully for Christ you will find: strength and hope for living; new meaning for your life and a new identity; an eternal perspective when you feel troubled by the changes in your life. Your faith can bring you hope in the midst of the circumstances and people around you and a joy — even when life disappoints you — because Jesus loves you and will carry you through.
