Embracing the new,
getting rid of the old
is freeing and liberating
makes us for Jesus bold.
It’s finally saying goodbye,
to former desires
and letting the Holy Spirit
ignite into our souls a fire.
Taking off the weight,
of spiritual depression
allows Jesus to make
a lasting impression.
It’s doing away with self,
and letting Jesus in
it’s going out everyday
not falling back into sin.
Doing away with the old,
for what is new . . .
is letting Jesus become
a part of you!
~~~~~~~~~
Therefore if any man be in Christ,
he is a new creature: old things
are passed away; behold,
all things are become new.

And thank you for thanking me for it 🙂 I am glad to see God brought you back safely and used your voice over 70 times to teach His Word to those who so desperately need to hear it. I pray the Holy Spirit will quicken it to their hearts and that He will continue to guide them in their faith walk with Jesus.

Would it be OK with you if I used your poem, Embracing the New, in one of our Bible studies at the jail? I know it would really encourage the ladies.
