Prodigal: That just frosted me!
Me: Don’t forget to forgive at some point…
This is from the book The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism by Timothy Keller
Everyone gets their identity, their sense of being distinct and valuable, from somewhere or something. Kierkegaard asserts that human beings were made not only to believe in God in some general way, but to love him supremely, center their lives on him above anything else, and build their very identities on him. Anything other that this is sin.
Having fear what people think of you, is also putting your identity away from Christ. Remember to focus on the Lord. Remember that He will not disappoint you.
Luke 18:27
But he said, “What is impossible with men is possible with God.”
