    What makes up your identity? Sanctification is a process that God wants to use to refine you. You'll find your identity there.

    In general, selfies tell a false story about us. They’re just a moment captured, not the whole picture. They’re misleading. Who we see in the mirror isn’t what others see. They’re as good as we want them to be. We can re-take them until we get it perfect. (not that I would ...read more
