MONDAY MORNING

"...be made new..."

"You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness." -- Ephesians 4:22-24

We are talking about new beginnings. So, we bid farewell to 2016 and look forward with expectation to 2017. And, more than ever let us embrace the  new year and desire to be made new in the attitude of our minds.  Make sure we put on the new self --- everyday.

The old life will try to creep back in. Don't give it room. Old attitudes will try to prevail. Don't give in to them.

BOTTOM LINE: May we -- "... be made new in the attitude of [our] minds;" May we -- " ... put on the new self...". May we make it a point to remind ourselves of these scriptures everyday of 2017. May we realize and know that we are a new creation -- "... created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness."  Amen? Amen.
