Reminders about identity

A brother was talking about how people all around him were  talking bad about him but how he had to stand in his identity as God's son.

Felt God's pleasure over him as he believed and persevered in trials.

And as i spoke it over him he rejected the commendation, i had to rebuke him. But i saw myself not being able to take God's commendation of me, always rejecting it when God says i am proud of you, you are doing well.

Where there is an element where we say 'we are but unprofitable servants', there is also an element where we say, 'God, all glory to You for you have empowered me to do well for You.'

Reminded that i myself need to know most importantly that I am His son!
