From observing a varying number of identities that an individual exhibits, we are reminded that we should focus on the most precious one, namely being a child of God and a member of His family. The legal, social, and scientific meanings and scope of identity can range from national, political, ethnic, and familial. Becoming a member of God's family is the one we should constantly put at the center of our lives and is defined succinctly in Galatians 3:26-29. We are admonished that we need to demonstrate the godly character traits that are associated with the members of the body. Actions like keeping the holy days and Christian living traits are elements that differentiate us from other people. When we fall short or display characteristics that go against that identity, we can return to God (Psalm 51). Maintaining our sight on our gifted identity and constantly asking for and receiving God's help will keep us on track to become better representatives of this group to the world as worthy witnesses.
