Last night at youth group, Pastor Hunter shared that the weight of the labels that are associated with us don’t have to have any power over us. Athlete. Nerd. Loser. Smart. Well-behaved. Bad-behavior. And so many more...
Paul tells us in 2 Corinthians that if we’re living our lives devoted to Christ, the old “us” is gone and the new “us” is here. In Christ, we don’t have to give those old labels power over us.
Instead, we can look at what God says about us: We are precious, we are honored, and we are loved by God.
After we wrote down the labels we struggle with, they were ripped up in front of us as we were reminded of just how precious, honored, and loved we are in God’s eyes.
Here’s YOUR reminder that in Christ, those old labels you used to carry no longer have power over you. You are “loved by Jesus” and that’s the most important label you can carry!
