2 Corinthians 5:17—So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new
creation: everything old has passed away; see, everything has become new!
Pastor Francis Chan has said, “Something is wrong when our
lives make sense to unbelievers.”
Christians are called to live counterculturally, and often our decisions
will seem odd to the people around us—even other Christians. The challenge, of course, is that we are not
called to live as if we are superior to unbelievers. Oh contraire!
We are called to love each other with the love Christ showed for us.
Today as you meditate on this Scripture lift up a prayer of
thanksgiving for the new creature you have become in Christ Jesus. Ask God to continue revealing His purpose in
your life. Say yes to His calling and
take note of the God-sized dreams He is placing in your heart. Consider keeping a prayer journal so you can
go back and see how God has moved in your life to use you according to His
will. Allow yourself to be His light in
this world.
