"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!"
2 Corinthians 5:17
As a new Spring season is upon us, we can look around at all of God's creation coming alive after winter's rest. Budding trees are bursting with new life and Spring flowers are blooming with new color.
Eternal life in Christ is much like a new season that is described in 2 Cor. 5:17!
The Old Has Gone ~ What are some areas of life that need to Go? Spring is a wonderful time in the life of a Christian to evaluate any "old" things that need to change! Great time for "Spiritual Spring Cleaning"!
The New Has Come ~ What New Life can Christ bring into the life of a believer? As we look around and think about the season of Spring that is upon us, do our lives as believers resemble new life springing out? Good News, God never breaks His Promises and He deeply desires in a believer's life for daily New Life Springing Forth In Christ!
As we pray and seek God for a new season in our lives, make a list of any old things that need to be removed from our lives and make a list of new life that we deeply desire for God to do in our life in Christ!
As God provides His plans for a New Life in Christ, who needs us to share with them how to have a New Life in Christ? Spring is a great opportunity to share how the old can be gone and a New Life in Christ can come! Today, this beautiful Spring day, someone needs Jesus!
Jesus makes all things NEW as we look around us and see evidence of Springing Into A New Season full of new growth, let's ask for NEW growth of Christ in our lives!
