Read Colossians 3:1-11
You have been raised to life with Christ,
so set your hearts on the things that are in heaven, where Christ sits on his
throne at the right-hand side of God. 2Keep your minds fixed on
things there, not on things here on earth. 3For you have died, and
your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4Your real life is Christ
and when he appears, then you too will appear with him and share his glory!
5 You must put to death, then, the
earthly desires at work in you, such as sexual immorality, indecency, lust,
evil passions, and greed (for greed is a form of idolatry). 6Because
of such things God’s anger will come upon those who do not obey him.f
7At one time you yourselves used to live according to such desires,
when your life was dominated by them.
8 But now you must get rid of all
these things: anger, passion, and hateful feelings. No insults or obscene talk
must ever come from your lips. 9Do not lie to one another, for you
have taken off the old self with its habits 10and have put on the
new self. This is the new being which God, its Creator, is constantly renewing
in his own image, in order to bring you to a full knowledge of himself. 11As
a result, there is no longer any distinction between Gentiles and Jews,
circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarians, savages, slaves, and free, but
Christ is all, Christ is in all.
Think
"This is the new being which God, it's Creator, is constantly
renewing in his own image..." - Colossians 3:10
This line is talking about you. God
is renewing you in his image. Restoring
you. Transforming you.
Pray
Lord restore and renew me.
