One more thing...

Shout out to Daddy Ray...HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Love you:)

My Identity in Christ

Just finished a Bible study called The Search for Significance by Robert McGee. Great study and would recommend it! So many things I could share, but here's a snid-bid (yes, that's a word in my vocab) called "My Identity in Christ":

"Because of Christ's redemption, I am a new creation of great worth.
I am deeply loved, completely forgiven, fully pleasing, totally accepted by God, and absolutely complete in Christ.
There has never been another person like me in the history of mankind, nor will there ever be. 
God has made me an original."

What appealed to me in these sentences were the adverbs (that's what they're called, right?...OI, don't tell Mrs. Schildkneckt!)...deeply, completely, fully, totally, absolutely...no room for kinda, sorta, maybe, conditionally. That's what's awesome about the Lord & His love for us...there's no in between, no gray...He loves us with a love that is so complete and pure that I can't fathom its depth, but I know it's life-changing!
