Have You Learned to Fly?

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.

2 Corinthians 5:17, NASB

Through a metamorphosis, a caterpillar forms a soft shell called a cocoon. In the cocoon, the caterpillar is gradually transformed into something new—a butterfly with wings and the ability to fly.

The newness of life you experience in Christ is more like a metamorphosis than a simple alteration of the same old thing. You become a brand-new creation when you are born again in Christ. You are indwelt by the Holy Spirit, transformed within, and given a new life with God. You’re not what you were. Jesus transforms you and is in the process of making you the woman He wants you to be. Get ready for new things in your life, for Jesus has made you brand-new.

Lord, thank You for making me the woman You want me to be, transforming me within, and giving me a new life. Amen.
