Who Am I?
Who am I?

You are a child of God—a daughter or son of your Heavenly Father, who knows you and loves you.

You lived with your Heavenly Father before you were born. He has known you and loved you from the beginning.

You are created in the image of God. Your Heavenly Father has created this world for you to learn, to grow, and to become like Him. Eventually, you can return to live with Him forever.

For this purpose, He has sent His Son into the world. Through the Savior, nothing can “separate us from the love of God” (Romans 8:39).

You are a child of God, whom He loves. This is your oldest, deepest, and most basic identity.

You have infinite potential
