God's Answer to an Identity Crisis

DAY 6 OF 7

Hide and Seek

Movie Soundbite: “I’ll be the one to hide if you do the things I need you to do for me.” – Madison Montgomery

Watch Clip #6.

God Soundbite: Madison finally realizes she must accept the help of her clone and lean in to the swap. In order to keep up the charade, she must hide while the clone does life for her. It doesn’t take long for Madison to realize that hiding in the closet is not the life she is looking for. David writes, Will evildoers never learn—those who devour my people as men eat bread and do not call on the Lord. There they are, overwhelmed with dread, for God is present in the company of the righteous. Psalm 14:5. This verse may seem confusing, but it refers to David feeling overwhelmed with a sense of abandonment—the idea that God is not there in the presence of David’s enemies. The result of this feeling is a reminder that God is present with those who follow after him (the righteous). Madison sends her clone off to do life because she doesn’t believe God is with her to help her do it on her own. God invites us to remain focused because he is with his people. God is with you today and will equip you with everything good if you ask.

Meditate on the idea that God is present which gives you the ability to remain focused.

Prayer Soundbite: Dear Lord, I have been hiding some parts of myself. I am afraid of what others will think if I reveal all of me—quirks and all. Please help me to bring all of myself out into the light. I want to trust your presence and stay focused on my own positive character development. Thank you, Jesus. Amen.

Soundbite for the Day: I can remain focused because the I AM is present.
