Identity Statements - How God sees me!

When I see myself, I see my failures and shortcomings.  I see that I am a woman who has had circumstances shape who she is and not what she is.  I have let my past dictate me.  Not anymore! Lysa Terkeurst says in her book Made to Crave that God defines us not who we are and where we come from.  I so like that and look forward to learning more about myself when it comes to how God sees me.
