Old Things

Old Things

8.22.15

2 Cor. 5:17

If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature--old things are passed away....

What a wonderful change in my life has been wrought 

Since Jesus came into my heart!

I have light in my soul for which long I have sought, 

Since Jesus came into my heart! —R. H. McDaniel

We are preparing to have a yard sale. Out with the old... Right??

That's not always easy! We tend to think about the old - "I might need this" "I refuse to sell this" " I know I haven't used this in 8 years, but I really, really will this year"!

Our daily walk really should resemble prep for a yard sale.  Each day, we should do a real inventory.....an "out with the old" look at our own lives. What am I holding on to today that could come between my Savior and me? Holding on to old things brings stagnation into our walk.  Jesus came that we might have life, new life... He came to make all things new!

Choose to grow in grace today.  Rid yourself of the old things that keep you defeated day after day. Commune through prayer, The Word, through waiting at our Savior's feet today and the things of earth will grow strangely dim.  Old things will pass away and ALL things will become new!

May you seek His face before

You face any other today!
