Identity Crisis!

Well, its interesting. The book I've been talking about just touched on something that was soo interesting to me. He started talking about ur identity with Christ including ur God given name. Now I love the name Rachel, the meaning the whole nine yards. But I've realized that when my name changed to Tippy my life was in the midst of a huge spiritual change. I was becoming a sold out christian at CCCB when the name became my idenity. There are a number of people in the Bible who are given a new name. I'm not saying i won't claim the name Rachel at all, its simply symbolism. I know that everyone in my hometown know me as Rachel and when I went there it was like huge idenity crisis, I never thought of my name being apart of that. It holds me back to my time of bondage. I don't mind when people call me that...its just something I've been thinking about. Tippy seems to be the me God wants me to be...sure I had my times while known as that name of not being holy, but it doesn't really matter how many names one has u will always have shortcomings..its the attempt to not have them that matters! I dunno, maybe to you it sounds silly, but to me I think it has a lot more signifagance then I've ever thought.
