His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue.
2 Peter 1:3

 Recommended Reading: John 10:10

Living in the post-Garden of Eden world—a world that labors and groans as it awaits its renewal (Romans 8:19-22)—we sometimes forget that we are a new creation in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). Paul’s use of the word “creation” in that verse follows his “light to shine out of darkness” phrase in 2 Corinthians 4:6—another reference to creation.

In spite of our living in a fallen world, we live in an Eden-like relationship with God. We are not deprived of what we need. In spite of the tension sin presents in the world, we have been given “all things that pertain to life and godliness” through Christ. In spite of the powers of darkness being present, God’s light—just as in Genesis—has been made to shine in our hearts. In spite of the evil one being present, Jesus came to give us abundant life (John 10:10).

In moments where you feel limited or constrained in this world, remember that you are a new creation in Christ. Our only constraint is the limits of our faith.

The whole creation is Thy charge, but saints are Thy peculiar care.
Isaac Watts
