Single.

1 year, 3 months, and 23 days I was with this boy. It's been almost a month since we broke up. It's safe to assume that this month has been extremely hard. While everyone in the world knows who he is, he's going to remain nameless for now. This post is not to bash him. It's to show what I've learned from the breakup.

I was watching Perry Noble online this past Sunday (a new hobby I've been doing a lot lately) and he was talking about lies that women believe. The lie he focused on in this message was "I'm not good enough". Which led him into naming things that women identify themselves in. Some of them were things like appearance, career, etc. Things I felt fine about...until he said "relationships".

When he got to relationships he began to go on about how people let relationships become their identity. While watching this I realized, I was identifying myself in my relationship. And being with the boy became my whole world. It became all I thought about, all I cared about.

He became my identity.

But he is not my identity. In Christ I am priceless. In Christ I am CUSTOM DESIGNED. God knew how much I was going to screw up. God knew all the sins I was going to commit and He made me anyway.

TRUTH-IN CHRIST I AM COMPLETE.

I took a long time to write this blog post, but I finally decided to finish it tonight. But today I'm telling you that my identity is a daughter of Christ.
