midst of identity crisis. To our generation,<br />

it is more of a disaster than just a mere<br />

problem. If we dont have a firm grasp on<br />

who we are, and to whom we belong, then<br />

it becomes a major issue which causes us<br />

to become vulnerable to the lies of the<br />

enemy. This is why many of us live our<br />

lives trying to please others, so that we<br />

may be accepted and validated. Its<br />

because we are trying to find ourselves and<br />

in the process we get lost even more.<br />

What we are trying to search for is our<br />

identity and the confidence from knowing<br />

who we really are but unknowingly, we<br />

search for it in the wrong places. Our true<br />

identity can only be found in Christ Jesus.<br />

It cannot be found in our accomplishments,<br />

the kind of cars we drive, money, status or<br />

our lifestyle. It can only be found in our<br />

true source – God Himself. He created us<br />

and He knows us too well.<br />

The key to overcoming insecurity is truth.<br />

If we do not know the truth, we do not<br />

know freedom. In John 146 Jesus says;<br />

I am the way, the truth, and the life.<br />

Getting saved is not<br />

enough, neither is<br />

attending services<br />

every Sunday or<br />

weekday but having a<br />

personal relationship<br />

with Jesus. It is and<br />

must be the starting<br />

point. Your<br />

relationship with Jesus<br />

matters above<br />

everything else. The<br />

ability to believe in<br />

the word of God and<br />

what He says about<br />

you is closely related<br />

to how well you know<br />

Him. If He is a<br />

stranger to you or you<br />

only have a casual<br />

relationship with Him,<br />

then its going to be<br />

hard on your part to<br />

believe what He says<br />

about you.
