Ephesians 4:24
"..and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness."
God has already created a new man for me to be. One that is righteous and holy in His eyes. God doesn't see me for my mistakes and failures, or anything I have done in the flesh. He sees me for who He created me to be. One, covered by the blood of Christ, my sins and flaws washed away by the sacrifice He made. Pure and blameless in His sight. If God did this for me, wouldn't I want to do everything to have a healthy flourishing relationship with Him?
I want to put on the new man. I want to cleanse my heart with His word, and my mind with His Spirit. I want to be immersed in His word, and in His truth. I want to train myself to wake up every morning and spend about an hour in meditation and prayer with Jesus, so I can be filled with Him, in the morning, every day.
