IDENTITY...THE NEW HOT BUTTON


  We don't need a PhD to realize God created two distinct sexes...Male(XY) and Female (XX) yet some parents, teachers and churches are allowing a false narrative to spin our kids lives out of control. In our attempt to include everyone's preferred pronoun we are participating in a lie that is leading this generation further away from God and the abundant life he's planned for them. So what has sparked the increase in sexual identity confusion? Many professionals think its influenced by group dynamics and social media. 

Sounds reasonable. Teens and young adults have always been peer conscious and tend to define themselves by the opinion of others. Let's face it...identity is a big deal. Everyone needs to be loved, valued and accepted. The way we perceive ourselves shapes the outcome of our lives. "As a man thinks in his mind, so he is."(Psalm 23:7) 

Unfortunately, these new social norms are telling us if we don't like a part of ourselves we can cancel our true identity and take on a new sexual orientation. It's as easy as transforming our bodies, our personalities, our sexuality, and slapping a new part of speech in front of our names. This idea will kill, steal, and destroy the lives of everyone following this path to self delusion. In the end your mind still comes with you on your transformation journey. Until you align your thinking with the correct source you will never be happy. 

The truth is...you are not here on this planet by accident. "For you shaped me first inside then out; you formed me in my mother's womb. Body and soul I am wonderfully made, bit by bit you sculpted me into something amazing."(Psalm 139:13-14) God had you in mind at conception. He decided your gender before you were born. In His eyes you are beautiful/handsome, smart, talented, worthy, capable, and valuable. He has a purpose and plan for your life. HE KNOWS ALL ABOUT YOU. YOU ARE LOVED. YOU ARE CHOSEN. YOU ARE ENOUGH. 

 This world is confusing and scary right now "but God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind." (2 Timothy 1:7) Everyone has an opinion about this topic but the only thing that matters is God's truth. He alone can transform you into the person you want to be. Place your identity into the hands of Jesus, the one who gave his life to set you free. Believe what the Bible says about you.                           God doesn't make junk.

LORD GOD, HELP ME TO LOVE THE PART OF MYSELF THAT I STRUGGLE TO ACCEPT AND GUIDE ME IN THE PATH YOU HAVE CHOSEN FOR ME.

IN JESUS NAME. AMEN
