What do You See When You Look at Your Selfie?
What should you be seeing if you are a Christian? Is your true identity being revealed?
What does God see when He looks at you?

What else is true about Christians? What else is true about you, if you are a Christian?
A Christian is a person who was created by God to do good works.
For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. (Ephesians 2:10 NLT)
A Christian’s life has purpose and meaning. God has given Christians important responsibilities to carry out.
A Christian is a person who is called to be a light in this world.
14 “You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. 15 No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father. (Matthew 5:14-16 NLT)
A Christian is an ambassador.
So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!” (2 Corinthians 5:20 NLT)
A Christian is a person who is:
Created by God to do good works.
A light in this world.
An ambassador.
…. anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person.
The old life is gone; a new life has begun!
(2 Corinthians 5:17NLT)
