I am a new creation; old things have passed away and all things have been made new. My old sinful, broken nature has been crucified with Christ. Quite simply, I am not the person that I once was.
So why, in the midst of life's trials and everyday circumstances do I still find myself reacting in anger, frustration, jealousy, bitterness, or discouragement? Aren't those the thought patterns, attitudes, and behaviors of a "dead man?"
This little video clip is a good reminder of how we need to recognize the dead things in our life a get rid of them on a daily basis (even when they try to convince us that they are very much alive).
Take a moment to read Colossians 3:1-17. Notice Paul's instructions about what to "put off" (v. 8) and what to "put on" (v.12).
This is life in Christ. Bring out your dead!
In passionate pursuit,
Chad
