Who I Am in Christ: Delivered & Redeemed
✨ Who I Am in Christ: Fixing My Identity Crisis Through Truth ✝️
This series was birthed out of a very real, very recent season where I lost myself…
In a relationship.
In people’s opinions.
In who I thought I had to be.
I started carrying shame that didn’t belong to me, and believing lies about who I was and what I was worth.
Recently, I went back to the basics and reconnected spiritually.
And God started reminding me that my identity isn’t something I have to figure out.
It’s something I already have in Him.
As I work through rediscovering who I am, I’ve been creating these little slide decks for myself.
And honestly… I felt like maybe they could help someone else too.
So here’s Day 13 of 50.
Let’s talk about what it really means to be free. ✨
Not half-way free.
Not “trying to get there.”
But completely delivered, claimed, forgiven, and brought into the light. 💛

Understanding who we are in Christ is a transformative journey that brings profound freedom and healing. The passage from Colossians 1:12-14 beautifully reminds us that God has not only rescued us from darkness but has also brought us into His marvelous light, making us worthy and beloved children through Jesus. This means you don't have to carry the burden of past guilt or shame—your identity is secured by grace, not by your mistakes or others' opinions. Many of us struggle with an identity crisis, feeling lost in relationships or societal expectations. Yet, rediscovering our identity in Christ shifts the foundation of our self-worth from human approval to divine acceptance. It means living as someone who is not just half-free or trying to earn freedom, but someone who is fully delivered, claimed, and forgiven. This freedom invites us to stop rehearsing battles already won. The enemy may try to convince us otherwise, but Christ has broken all chains—sin, shame, fear—and cleared the way for us to walk boldly in light and grace. Embracing this truth daily through affirmations and scripture helps reinforce our new identity. For example, declaring "I am redeemed, forgiven, and made worthy through Jesus" helps internalize what God says about us. Practical ways to live this truth include reflecting on Bible verses like Colossians 1:12-14, journaling about your spiritual journey, and engaging with communities of faith for encouragement. Remembering that the resurrection power of Jesus breaks every stronghold empowers you to live freely, not bound by past mistakes or external validation. Ultimately, this identity in Christ is not something you have to earn or figure out; it is already yours. It brings a deep peace and a renewed purpose as you realize God’s unwavering love and claim on your life. When doubts come, remind yourself that God’s light outshines every shadow, and walk confidently in the freedom that is your inheritance as His child. If you’ve experienced this freedom or are seeking it, reflect on what truly helps you remember that your past does not define you. Share your journey and encourage others who may still be trapped in the lies of darkness. After all, real identity in Christ means living as someone found, free, and deeply loved every single day.
I think sometimes it’s hard to remember that my past no longer defines me because I have people in my life that repeatedly reminded me of the shameful things that I’ve done over the years. And I’m not talking about people who are not followers of Christ I’m talking about people who claim to be Christians who claimed Jesus Jesus Christ as the Lord and Savior. It’s so hard because in my mind I just wanna scream at them if you’re a Christian and you believe in Jesus, why are you not forgiving why are you holding these chains around me and squeezing them as tight as you can and trying to make me feel small and trying to make me feel like a bad person like it’s your job? I want to tell these people that their job is to love like Jesus. Jesus spent time with people who were not perfect. His job here on earth was to lead people to God and ultimately to sacrifice his life to cover the multitude of sins that every single person on this earth commits. So sometimes it’s just hard to remember that my past no longer defines me because I have so many people constantly reminding me of my failures, my flaws and the terrible things that I’ve done that are “unforgivable”.
