Being born again is an experience that is precious and invigorating. It’s like discovering gold! You want to tell the world about it. You want everyone to experience that adrenaline rush of knowing you have found a priceless thing. But like the gold rush, some will see it, some will believe it, some will want it too, and some will not believe it is possible. All three responses are valid.
But what matters most is the fact that the event occurred. You know it and God knows it.
As the transformation process begins and continues the old, you will start to disappear.
The person who is always angry, the individual who is forever frustrated.
The you who had no hope and showed it by lashing out at others will slowly disappear.
The you who believed that God existed but did not demonstrate that knowledge in your body language, your choice of words when angered, and the thoughts that reside in you head will slowly submit to the Holy Spirit and outwardly the transformed you will be seen.
Once again some people will see it and believe it and some will not.
It is the end of an old year and the beginning of a new year is approaching. Approach it with the knowledge that you are a new creation in God – if you have accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior! Approach it knowing that He knows your name and knows you better than you know yourself. BUT He loves you more than you can ever imagine or think! You are His new creation, and He says you are His. Feel about yourself the way that He feels about you. The following is not a contemporary worship song, but it is appropriate. How do you think about being His new creation? Remember that every day when we open our eyes, it is a new morning and a new day in Jesus – How does that make you fee?
