Put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.
Ephesians 4:22-23
Jesus invites us to change. Yes, change may bring us a certain amount of pain, but we need to decide whether it hurts more to stay as we are or to change.
The new self, created in the likeness of God, brings relief and rest to us. We are no longer chased by our wayward deeds, but are comforted in the righteousness and holiness that comes from serving the living God.
Put on your new self and be renewed.
