“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” 2 Corinthians 5:17
If you abide in Christ, you aren’t just transformed, renewed and changed…you are a NEW creature. You look different, your abilities are different and the old is GONE!
When a caterpillar is in the chrysalis, it basically digests itself to become a new creature, the butterfly. Is that not such a good representation of how we should be when we come to Christ? Dying to self and emerging so beautiful and looking absolutely different to the world around us?!?! You aren’t the same as you were…so don’t look back to those caterpillar days…you are different now…a beautiful butterfly…fly forward in the beauty of what Christ did for you on the cross.
