Too Many Identities
TOO MANY IDENTITIES
Young people find identity in a Pro-athletes and “A” teams
others idolize, emulating their rock or beloved film stars
adults, more subtle-- identify with careers , family roles-
hobbies, trends—celebrities—alluring images duplicated
Enthusiastically we akin to people and ideals appealing
conforming easily—desired images—accomplishments
make conflicting—superfluous scheduled demands on us
as passions will pull us in all directions confusing deviously
Perhaps identified pictures—affections are not Christ-ward
classifying Jesus as Savior turn admirations to obligations
examine yourself—how do you envision yearning aspirations
we should mold-- keep reflections- identity entirely on Him
