"I am a Ballerina!"

We just celebrated Keziah's 3rd birthday.  She got a new dress from Grandee in England (why do the styles there seem so much cuter than here?)  She immediately donned her newest addtition to her wardrobe and proceeded to twirl and show it off.  "You look like a ballerina!"  I proclaimed.  She very definitely replied, "I AM a ballerina!"  It immediately got me thinking.  How do I see myself?  Do we define ourselves by what we look like?  I don't necessarily mean the outward appearance and the clothes we wear (though that could be a big one for us), but more like what we do - our daily habits, our weaknesses and strengths, our good, bad and ugly.  If we are in Christ we are new.  We are forgiven and righteous through Christ.  So, even though our tutus may not always be on straight, who we are in Christ never changes.  Check out Jospeh Prince Ministries to get a full-on revelation of what it means to be in Christ.  My whole perspective has changed through his foundational teaching.  I guarantee you'll be dancing like never before!
