New

What an opportunity we have!!! We are new! 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, "Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come." Too often we associate ourselves with the person we were before we met Christ and begin to identify ourselves from a perspective of shame. Try reminding yourself today that you are new and that God sees you as this new creature. Isaiah 43:18-19 says, "Do not call to mind the former things, or ponder on the past. Behold, I will do something new..." Thank God He did! You and I are new if we are in Christ.
