Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come. The old has gone, the new is here!
II Corinthians 5:17
Just a short word today, wishing all a beautiful Easter. Easter is the day celebrating new life. We commemorate on this day that Jesus rose from the tomb, signalling eternal life in him. Fresh starts are exactly what we need in a fallen and broken world. We all need a new start, as well as forgiveness. God knows this and made provision for it.
I tell my clients that “permission to fail is the ignition for success”. What I mean by that is that we need to recognize and own our failures- then forgive ourselves, and use them to make tomorrow better. Jesus gives us a new chance every day to live and to love others. Don’t let the old things get in the way of the new!
So, Happy Easter! Today is the new day.
Prayer: Thank you Father for new life, forgiveness, and fresh starts, Amen
