Ever had anything new after fighting to keep something old going? We have had moments where we had a car held together with duct tape, barb wire, and chewing gum because that was all we could do. Eventually, however, we were blessed enough to get a "new" vehicle, and, oh, how nice it was.
There's something about new things. They smell new. They look new. They behave like new things should. They are NEW. New clothes are bright and shiny. New shoes look clean and polished. New cars seem to go faster and get better gas mileage. Yeah, something about being new.
Today's word is from 2 Corinthians 5:17, New Living Translation, which reads, "This means that anyone who belongs to CHRIST has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!"
Life seeming old to you? Getting tired of the same old, same old? Why not give JESUS a try. He will give you a new life! You will smell better. You will look better. You will go faster and get better mileage than ever before. No, none of that. But, you will experience the greatest life you could ever live. You will be new, and that newness begins each morning. Everyday you will awaken as GOD'S great creation!
Whatever is in your past. Whatever you are clinging to. Let it all go. Let GOD make you NEW!
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
