A.I.: Artificial IdentitySample

Did you know that Scotland’s national animal is a unicorn? America has the bald eagle; England has the Lion, and Scotland has the unicorn (which is arguably the coolest national animal on the planet!). Why am I sharing this random information? Well, the national animal of a country is supposed to tell you certain things about that country. The animal defines things about them. In that same way, what we use to define ourselves shows us something about who we are. In Scripture, Jesus tells the Pharisees that some things belong to Caesar (who is like their king), and other things belong to God. When it comes to what defines who you are, that right belongs to God alone—not money, stuff, behaviors, mistakes, or anything else. If you’re going to let anything define who you are to the world, let it be the fact that you were made and created by God. That is the most authentic thing about you!

Take a few moments right now to close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. As you do, tell yourself out loud that only God can define who you are.
