labels

who defines you?

what labels are you carrying?

i've been called many throughout my life~
the ones i've brushed off (like my son taught his sister how to do just last week)
are usually from unbelievers who know not what they do.
forgiveness is easy.
accountability with the LORD is hard.
turn away from things of this world.
from things that have stained you...
even the stains/labels you have put upon yourself...
ask forgiveness...
be made like new.

today i implore you to listen to who CHRIST says you are and brush off the rest:

beautifully and wonderfully made~
in HIS image~
and remember that you are being held in his palm
unwavering
steady
and protected under the shelter of HIS wings.

hallelujah!
