Don't be insecure. You are a you on purpose. Quit trying to be an imitation. You are an original. God made you a designer original, a destiny original.

Don't you die a copy of something else.

If you try to be someone other than yourself, you'll fail to be either.

Hello and welcome to Destin for Victory with Pastor Paul Shepard.

Well, part of becoming mature is recognizing who we are as individual members of the body of Christ.

Our strengths, our weaknesses, and as we get older, it's healthy to admit that we can't do all the things we used to do.

Coming up next, you'll be challenged to embrace who you are in Christ, to operate in who

God designed you to be, and to learn to accept the changes life brings your way.

Big old babies.

Still fussing about any little small thing.

Still fretting and whining.

Still not ready to just let some stuff go.

Still hassling with people, still making major things,

minor things, minor things major.
