FORMED—3 

“I AM WHAT I DO”

My heart took delight in all my work, and this was the reward for all my labor. Yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done and what I had toiled to achieve, everything was meaningless, a chasing after the wind…  Ecclesiastes 2:10-11

OUR IDENTITY WRONGLY COMES FROM:

- WHAT WE’VE ACCOMPLISHED. 

- WHAT WE HAVE.

- WHAT PEOPLE THINK ABOUT US.

For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:10

·  WHAT WE DO IS A RESULT OF WHO WE ARE.

·  WHAT WE DO DOESN’T DEFINE WHO WE ARE.

·  THE DO’S AND THE DON’T’S

Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and  you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." Matthew 11:29-30

What do you need to add to your “to-don’t” list?

It is a trap for a man to dedicate something rashly and only later to consider his vows. Proverbs 20:25

·  THE WHEN AND THE THEN.

Now listen, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money." 14 Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. James 4:13-14

Name your greatest “When—Then”

When________, Then_______.

And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus… Colossians 3:17
