The New Creation Has Come

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! — 2 Corinthians 5:17

When we are in Christ, we are born again.

We become new creations.

Saying goodbye to our old selves.

And saying hello to the new.

Our new creation has come.

Like a Day in God's Sight

A thousand years in your sight are like a day that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night. — Psalm 90:4

A thousand years in God's eyes are like a day that has flown by.

He is not tied to time or space.

Rather, He is omniscient and omnipresent.

With me all the time.

Going before me like a watch in the night.

Guiding me on the path of life. 

The New Creation Has Come

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!  — 2 Corinthians 5:17

Now that I follow Christ, my old sinful and dirty self is being put aside.

The old has gone. 

The new is here!

If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation!

Sunday I made strawberry sorbet. 

It turned out a bit soft so it's now hardening in the freezer.

Even so, it was very tasty. 

I topped it with a sprig of mint from our garden.

My next recipe will use coconut cream.

We'll see which version we like best with a taste test.

Just as the strawberries became new when I made them into sorbet, how much more is God transforming me into a new creation!

The New Creation Has Come

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! — 2 Corinthians 5:17

Now that we are in Christ, we are a new creation.

Our old lives have gone.

The new life in Christ has come.

God has given us His Holy Spirit to breathe new life in us.

As a result, we no longer need to take out our frustrations on each other.

We can live as God's servants.

And as ambassadors for Jesus.

A new day is breaking.

The old has gone; the new is here!
