The now, and the not yet!







Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. - 2 Corinthians 5:17

In Christ, we become a new creation. The hard part is struggling with the in between stage, the now and the not yet. Basically, life on Earth will always have some struggle between the old self and the new self. However, we can and will begin to walk in the newness as we respond to work of the Holy Spirit. Remember anything God has for us is far better than we could ever imagine. Sometimes it’s our fear of the unknown that keeps us stuck in “old.” Or perhaps we think we’re fine just the way we are and don’t want to change. Whatever the reason, don’t cheat yourself of the abundant blessing God has in the new creation He is making you!!

Praise You Lord, you love us too much to keep the same. Holy Spirit would come and do Your work within us. May we let go of the fear of change and find joy in who You are making us! In Jesus Name Amen.
