Fresh Start: Are You Ready for Yours?

by Brent Sloss

Often as believers, our awareness of who and what we are not is much stronger than our awareness of who and what we are in Christ Jesus. The truth is, as believers, we are new creations! Our Heavenly Father desires that His children walk in the realities of this marvelous mystery; living in the fullness of the new life that Jesus has given to us. He desires that our hearts would so deeply grasp the reality of who we are in Christ that the way we think, speak and act would testify of our true position before God. We are much more than just sinners saved by grace, and we were created for much more than simply making it through life! As new creations in Christ Jesus, we have the potential to live as a brand new person – righteous, accepted, lavished with love, and empowered to obey God and partner with Him in good works.
