Who do you Identify with, meaning; where do you draw your spiritual and creative power from?

The Source

Remain in Me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in Me.¹

Our friends, family, church, neighborhood or country of birth, does not define us. When we come to faith in Jesus Christ, we are defined and identified by Him and with Him, and Him alone.

To identify with anything else, will prove to be a stumbling block. Do you dance, paint, write, act, sculpt, bake, surf, do make up, sing, etc?

Well, begin to trust the Lord with those talents or abilities. Abide in Him, and show the world a side of Christianity they never thought existed. Don’t be afraid, but bold. Don’t be double minded; have a sound mind and with wisdom and prayer, walk through new doors.

Let Him show you how to truly live a life of surrender, so you can in turn become victorious.

Allow yourself to be molded by Him, so the beauty that is formed in your life, will be seen in the eyes of others; for His glory. Become less, so He can become more. The spotlight is not for you to showcase yourself; but, for Christ to showcase His power, love, mercy, compassion and gift of salvation.

Remember, we are Living Sacrifices. How can our Creator be such a creative force, and leave us without the ability to do the same. The world is our temporary residence, let’s do all we can in it, to make our heavenly Father proud. Go out into your respected fields of art and bring the light and salt with you.
