Our Identity in Christ
Following on from our last post ‘Who do you think you are?’, Nat Aspley and I have joined together to express our identity in Christ creatively . Nat has written the poems and I have provided the artwork.
Sonship
Adopted
Called to be HIS own
Chosen
Belonging
A child of GOD
Accepted
Loved by HIM
Hand picked
A child of eternity
Blessed from Heaven
By the King
Royalty
An heir to the throne
Belonging
Called to be HIS own
(1 John 3:1a)
Royalty
Royalty
Clothed in royal robes
Belonging to HIM
The King of kings
I am HIS child
Sealed in HIM
Wear HIS Name
Being chosen and accepted
I am HIS child
An heir to the throne
Belonging to the King
Royalty
Clothed in royal robes
(Eph. 1:13b-14; 1 Peter 2:9)
Heavenly Citizens
Citizens of heaven
Chosen by GOD
Belonging
Named and claimed
Called HIS own
To be HIS inheritance
HIS very great reward
Citizens of heaven
Belonging
Chosen by GOD
To reign with HIM
At the Father’s side.
(1 Peter 2:9)
Ambassadors
I have a letter of recommendation
HIS seal of approval
HIS guarantee
As I am chosen by HIM
Purchased with HIS blood
Because of all HE has done for me
I am righteous before GOD
In right standing
Dressed in royal robes
I have HIS approval
I am sealed with HIS mark
Have a letter of recommendation
GOD’s approval
His guarantee
As I am belonging
Chosen by HIM
(Eph. 1:13-14)
In Christ
My identity is in HIM
It’s who I am
What defines me
Channels my thoughts and actions
Directs my steps
The choices I make
My identity is in HIM
It’s who I am
Where my self worth comes from
Long with acceptance and love
To know I am cherished
By GOD above
My identity is in HIM
It’s who I am
I am a child of the KING
Royalty
An heir to the throne
I am sealed in HIM
My identity is in HIM
It’s who I am
Chosen by the King
I am wonderfully loved and cherished
A child of GOD
Treasured and adored
(1 Peter 2:9)
