Clothed in Grace
You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds.
EPHESIANS 4:22-23 NIV
Fashion comes and goes with every new season. If you don't follow it closely, you could be wearing last year's wardrobe before you realize that you are totally out of date! You may not care much about fashion, but living in the past can indicate a lack of acceptance of the present.
Such is the illustration with our salvation. When we accepted Christ as our Savior, we accepted a new life— one that is free from the power of sin, and one that began our spiritual, eternal life. If you feel like you have been caught wearing sin like an ugly, old garment, take it off!
Instead, clothe yourself with an attitude of forgiveness and the freedom that was given to you through Jesus.
Jesus, forgive me for going back to some of my old sinful habits. Thank you that you have given me a new life that allows me to have freedom from my sinful nature. Give me an attitude that willingly throws off my old life, so I can live by your grace.
