Have you looked at yourself since the betrayal and barely recognized who you are anymore?
Does it feel like the person you used to be has gotten lost somewhere in the pain and confusion and survival mode?
Do you find yourself interpreting your husband cheating on you as evidence about who you are as if his choices somehow say something true about whether you are enough, whether you are lovable, whether you are worth choosing?
So much of what feels unbearable after betrayal and infidelity trauma, the anxiety, the obsessive thoughts, the hopelessness, the inability to move forward, is connected to one thing.
I am introducing the image that is going to carry us through this entire series:
the crown, a biblical and spiritual reality about who you actually are as a daughter of the King.
Drawing on Romans 8:16-17 and Ephesians 1 you will learn five truths about your identity that betrayal and infidelity cannot touch:
You are chosen, adopted, redeemed, forgiven, and sealed.
This is Week 1 of our identity series. Everything starts here with remembering what you are actually wearing. Your true identity that never got lost.
