Reminder about who you are

Here is another great quote from Hidden in Christ by James Bryan Smith:
"Remember who you are are: you are one in whom Christ dwells and delights. Remember where you are are: you are "in Christ," safe and secure. And remember what you are capable of: you can do all things through Christ."
Believe the truth from God's Word today.  Don't let your self-image or the world around you define.  Let God define you.  It is about what he has already done.  Ponder this quote from Smith as well:
"This identity is not precarious--it will never change. I did not earn it, and I cannot lost it. It is based on what God has done for me, not on what I have done for God."
