Identity Theft...Sign Me Up

Titles...I HATE THEM!  

I never fill out the blank where I am suppose to put a suffix or prefix for my name...it just bugs the snot out of me.  Does it really matter if I am a Miss, Mrs., Ms., Dr. or whatever else there is?  I just want to be Dana.

I want to be known as a humble follower of Christ and that is all.  I don't care if I have a degree in politics, theology or psychology...I just want to be Dana.  I realize it takes a lot of hard work and a lot of hours but the minute you put a title beside my name, I feel like I am identified by it and I don't want that identity.

I want to be identified for being real.  I want to be identified for loving people.  I want to be identified for humbleness.  I want to identified for being non-judgemental.  I want to be identified as a lover of God.  

The title I want..."Child of the Most High".  I want my identity to come from Christ...not something the world or some accomplishment has given me.  I just want to be Dana.  

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light..1 Peter 2:9 .
