  1. Where do you draw your Self Image from? Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. 2 Corinthians 5:17

  2. Today is interactive – It will help to know those around you Please introduce who you are to person next to you

  3. Do you?

  4. Explore Points Who are you really? Do you want to be more/different? What will it take to become that?

  5. Who are you? Did you just use your name when asked to share “Who you are”? Name - a unique identifier but not you – you are more Give it another go: Job role /Family role/ Religious Belief ? – you are more!!!!!

  6. You are who you allow yourself to think you are Do you have the faith to see yourself as God see’s you? “And to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.” Ephesians 4:24

  7. Do you want to be more/different? What defines you? Are you the sum of your past actions – your baggage and stuff you hope no-one ever finds out about you? You have to let go of your “right” to hang on – Freewill!

  8. Hanging on Who will you be without your success or hurt? Who are you without your profession? How do you introduce yourself beyond name, family, job role and belief structure? What will you do to keep who you are?

  9. In order to bring something of value you need to believe you are a person of value Are you into baggage collection or disposal? What baggage have you collected along the way? What bruising still haunts you and pulls you back What words have you been unable to let go off? – it is only yours if you accept it

  10. Voice of Truth “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent” Eleanor Roosevelt but what then? How do we handle a hurt from a parent, teacher, sibling, friend? We choose the voice(s) we listen to

  11. Keeping “Safe” Our self image is often best seen in our coping mechanism Do you need to hurt in order to feel? Hurt others and/or yourself? Do you keep walls up to stop feeling too much? Do you believe you are worthy enough to even deserve good things?

  12. The Motions This might hurt, it's not safeBut I know that I've gotta make a changeI don't care if I breakAt least I'll be feeling something‘Cause just okay is not enoughHelp me fight through the nothingness of lifeI don't wanna go through the motionsI don't wanna go one more dayWithout Your all consuming passion inside of meI don't wanna spend my whole life askingWhat if I had given everything Instead of going through the motions?No regrets, not this timeI'm gonna let my heart defeat my mind Let Your love make me wholeI think I'm finally feeling something

  13. Ask Yourself Who or what defines you? Who will you allow yourself to be?

  14. “Fear is worship of wrong God”

  15. Understand Your Worth! • Take ownership of your life and your freewill • Be self observant & self aware • Check truth – Are you really being honest with yourself • Watch your thoughts • Read truth, speak truth, surround self with truth • Surround self with people who see you as you are and as all you could be
