2 Corinthians 5:17

We serve the God of fresh starts and new beginnings. And to all who would believe, through the death of His Son Jesus on the Cross, God offers a rebirth. For the moment we receive Christ as our Savior we become new creatures, born again, cleansed from sin, and declared righteous. Gone is our old nature as the Holy Spirit indwells us, going to work changing us from the inside out. He gives us the gift of a new nature that no longer chases after the desires of the flesh, but instead fills its desires through chasing after the Lord.

2 Corinthians 5:17

No matter who we are or what we’ve done in the past, God is the God of fresh beginnings. For once we receive Jesus as our Savior, we experience a “new birth”.  And through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, the old us becomes the new us, reconciled back to God, declared righteous, and eternally forgiven. The past is old and forgotten. And as new creatures of the Lord with new spirits and natures, we become heirs in His kingdom. No longer is our destiny death and destruction, but instead a heavenly one spent at the side of Jesus and in the presence of God forever!

On this Christmas Day as we celebrate the birth of our Savior, let us echo the words of Paul. For not only in this holiday season, but each day, our wish for everyone is this. May the grace of Christ flow through you to everyone you meet. May the love of God shine through you in all that you do. And may your life be lead under the direction of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. On this, the most glorious of all days, we wish you the joy and love of God’s blessings. And come, let us adore Him!
