New Creation
And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again. So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! 2 Corinthians 5:15-17
What if....our "first identity" was that of being made in the image of God...a royal priesthood...a child of the Most High...
This season, as we reflect upon and celebrate, the birth of Jesus, both who He is and what He has done, it is my prayer that the Spirit will bring peace to all whose hearts are heavy - to those who mourn the loss of loved ones, to those who battle illness or depression, to those who long for a new chapter in life to begin. Hold fast to Him and the promise, "if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation." Jesus said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you!"
