Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.— 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NKJV)

It’s so amazing to realize that when we give our lives to Christ, He takes us just as we are and in exchange, gives us His nature, making us a new creation. It’s just the beginning of a lifelong journey we take with Him to become everything God created us to be.

In this process, God doesn’t give us a list of rules to follow and then stand on the sidelines watching us fail, but He gives us a new heart and then helps us do all that He has given us a desire to do.

We can learn to depend entirely on Jesus to give us right standing with God and to help us do what is right in His sight. We can form the habit of leaning on God in all things.

The cardinal guideline for the Christian who wants to be what God wants him to be is, “Apart from Me…you can do nothing” (see John 15:5). Abide in Christ as the branch abides in the vine, continually receiving new life that produces new growth.

Prayer of the Day: Lord, help me see myself the way You see me, as a new creature in You. In Jesus’ name, amen.
