New Self

9 Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices 10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator. (Colossians 3:9-10 NIV)

It’s that time of year and how many of you made it through the first week with your new self? How many resolutions stuck.

Classically, most people barely make it through the first week. Someone I know posted the other day “well, already blew 2019; here’s to making it stick in 2020!”.

That tends to be the way of things. We make grand plans on the 1st and by the 5th we are already calculating the next year.

But we can begin a new each day, renewing ourseves and moving toward a better tomorrow. A date on the calendar is not needs, just resolve and the love of the Creator and a desire to be more like Him.
