I used to use Jeremiah 29:11--"I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord. "Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you hope and a future." Don't get me wrong; it's a totally inspiring verse and a great verse to live by.
But I've found a new one that describes me and my life better. It's Galations 2:20--My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
Technically, I'm not alive anymore. It's Christ living in me. So everything I say and do should reflect Him. People know I'm a Christian. But my actions gotta back me up, or else they'll say, "You're just like everybody else, so why should I get saved?"
So I challenge you to say so-long self and hello Jesus :)
