GOD TREASURES US!
The Word of God says that because of Jesus Christ
We are a new person and have a new identity!
One of the most important things we can do in our recovery is to embrace our new identity and see ourselves through Jesus' eyes . . . i.e., who you and I are "in Christ." Below are listed (with supporting Scripture) just a few of the many TRUTHS contained in the Bible concerning our secure position in Christ Jesus. The facts are there . . . all we need to do is believe them!!
