May 6th-Afternoon | IDENTITY CRISIS

Proverbs 24:12 (NLT) Don't try to avoid responsibility by saying you didn't know about it. For God knows all hearts, and he sees you. He keeps watch over your soul, and he knows you knew! And he will judge all people according to what they have done.

There was an incident told many years back about Lawrence Bader. For seven years, eight months, and twenty days Lawrence Bader was John “Fritz” Johnson, who advanced to become sports director of KETV, television, in Omaha, Nebraska. He also had a wife and two children in Omaha. Then a family friend spotted Johnson at a sports show in Chicago. Fingerprinting confirmed that Bader and Johnson were one and the same. He had disappeared in Cleveland after heading a small boat out into storm-tossed Lake Erie. He was presumed drowned until the old friend saw him at the sports show. Johnson or Bader pleaded he had no knowledge of his past in Akron, Ohio, where he was the son of a prominent dentist and the father of four children. Despite the fingerprinting he kept insisting that he could not remember his old life. The Bible says in Psalm 139:13 you made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother's womb. God knows who you are; allow Him to explain to you who you are and how to find your life. Read His word.
