Who Am I ~ What Is My Purpose In Life?Who am I? NeedEncouragement.com

Please contact us if you have questions or if you need some encouragement.

When we ask the question, “Who am I?” it’s easy to fall into the trap of comparing ourselves to others or trying to fit in with societal norms. Some young people have been peer pressured to think that the sex God has made them was somehow a mistake. (adults and the government politicians are unfortunately supporting their confused wayward ways). The peer pressure and confusion must be horrific. But let me encourage you today by reminding you that none of that matters in the grand scheme of things. Who am I? You are a creation of God, intricately designed and molded in His perfect image. With every breath you take, you carry within yourself a spark of divinity and an immense capacity for love and compassion. Your worth is not determined by how well you conform to society’s standards or what others think about you; your worth is intrinsic because God has deemed it so.

If ever doubt creeps into your mind, remember this: if you have accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, then you are a child of God – chosen, cherished, and eternally loved beyond measure. Your purpose extends far beyond societal expectations or fleeting trends; rather, it is rooted deeply in the essence of who God created you to be. Embrace your uniqueness wholeheartedly! You possess qualities and characteristics that no one else on this earth can replicate – talents waiting to be discovered, dreams begging to be pursued. So don’t allow anyone else to define who you are or confine your potential within their limited understanding; instead, look up towards Heaven where your true identity lies. Seek guidance from our Heavenly Father and trust that He sees something beautiful in you – something extraordinary that only He can fully comprehend. ~ Bill Greguska

John 1:12  Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.

Who Am I ~ And What Is My Purpose?


 

Who Am I?

Who am I when Jesus Christ lives in me?I am blessed and highly favored because Jesus Christ is my Lord! “Who am I?” depends on who you belong to. Do you belong to Jesus?

If you have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, you belong to Jesus!

He bought you with a price by his sacrificial death on the cross for your sins and mine.

Created in God’s image, God has a plan for your life.

You know who you are to some degree, but take the time to think about the question, “Who am I?”

Who am I?

This is a question that we have all asked ourselves at some point in our lives. It’s a fundamental question that touches the very core of our being. The answer lies within us, and it is rooted in the truth that God created us in His image. When we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we become children of God with an eternal destiny to be with Him forever in heaven. Our worth does not depend on what others think of us or even what we think of ourselves; it hinges solely on what God thinks about us. And let me tell you, He thinks incredibly highly of you! You are fearfully and wonderfully made, cherished by your Heavenly Father who loves you exactly as you are – flaws and all! So don’t let anyone else define your identity for you because when you know who you are in Christ, nothing can shake your confidence in yourself or your future.

You Are Amazing ~ And God Made You That Way!


 

 

Who Am I?

This is a challenging question because it makes us come face to face with a complicated Truth. The Bible tells us that everyone alive has two things in common.

  1. We are all created in God’s image (Genesis 1:27). This means we all have intrinsic value and worth. But it also means that God has placed within each of us a soul. This soul can live forever—even after our body dies.
  2. We are all born with sin in our lives (Romans 3:23). We all are born wanting to be our own gods, which means even from birth, we have rejected the holy, perfect God who created us. Sin makes a relationship with God impossible and condemns our souls to live forever away from God.

God had a plan in place from eternity to redeem and restore. That is who He is—He “devises ways so that a banished person does not remain banished from him” (2 Samuel 14:14). Because God’s love is infinite, He could not leave us banished; He longs to have a relationship with each of us. So God ransomed us—He paid the eternal penalty of our sin—through the person and work of Jesus Christ, His Son, God in the flesh. Jesus lived a perfectly godly life and then took the just punishment for all our sins—in our place.
