Take it off! Ditch the world’s labels and wear God’s

All the world’s a label these days.  We label conditions with words like ADHD, anxiety disorder, hyperactive.  We label women with words like stay-at-home-mom, working mom, dance mom, helicopter mom.  We label personality types with words like type A, sanguine, choleric, Achiever. We label kids with words like braniacs, popular kids, jocks, nerds, geeks, drama kids.

But with all these labels, I think we have lost sight of the most important identity we have been given.  What God thinks of us is so much greater than any label the world puts on us.

In the following video, I discuss three new labels you can wear and exactly what God thinks of you.

Video Summary Notes:

You can become God’s Treasure by wearing three labels:

You are WONDERFUL.

“Even while we were yet sinners, he came to save us.” Romans 5:8

You created my inmost being, you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made, your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” Psalm 139:13-14

You are FORGIVEN.

Blessed is he whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.” Psalm 32:1-2

“As far as the east from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions.” Psalm 103:12          

You are LOVED.

“…that you may have the power to grasp how long, how wide, how deep is the love of Christ!” Ephesians 3:18

“For God so loved the world, that He gave his one and only Son, that whosoever believe in Him…” John 3:16

“Nothing can separate us from the love of Christ…” Romans 8:38-39
