Who Am I?

from Daily Devotions for Busy Lives

Lost your sense of identity after a job loss, breakup, or major life change? In this episode, discover why your deepest identity isn't found in roles or accomplishments, it's found in being God's masterpiece, created anew in Christ Jesus.Have you ever had a role or title stripped away and suddenly wondered, "Who am I without that?"Most of us build our identity on things that can be taken away. Things like careers, relationships, accomplishments, status, or other people's opinions. It works fine as long as those things are in place. But when the job ends, the relationship changes, or the accomplishment fades, we're left standing in the rubble, wondering what's left.In this episode, we look at the story of Vonnie Tyler, whose entire world was built around being an NFL wife. For years, her identity was wrapped up in the lifestyle, the status, and the community that came with her husband's football career. Then football ended. No more games, no more spotlight, no more built-in community. And Vonnie was left asking a question she didn't expect: "If I'm not an NFL wife anymore, who am I?"Through her story and Ephesians 2:10, you'll see that your deepest identity was never meant to rest on something that could be taken away. It was meant to rest on Someone who never leaves. God calls you His masterpiece, crafted with intention, created anew in Christ, and made for good works He planned long ago. When everything else shifts, that foundation doesn't move.BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER:Why building your identity on roles, titles, and accomplishments always leads to fragilityWhat Ephesians 2:10 reveals about who you really are, God's masterpiece, created anew in Christ for a purposeA practical exercise to identify where your identity has been misplaced and how to anchor it in who God says you areA job can end. A relationship can change. But when your identity is rooted in the God who made you and calls you His, that foundation doesn't move.Share This Episode:https://www.dailydevotionsforbusylives.com/176Need Prayer?
