I. We Are More Than the Choices We Make
Often we allow the choices we make to fefine how we see ourselfves.

We can dig in to find the truth,
We can expose the lies,
We have believed about who we are.

You will find that God’s love is enormous,
That you can find your identity in Him,
Not in your mistakes.
God created us and has a plan for us.
We need to understand that,
No matter what lies

We carry from our past,
We will begin to see ourselves as He sees us:

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
