Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. 2 Corinthians 5:17
Taking accountability for your actions and words is a part of being obedient to God. So often people forget that they are accountable to the Lord for everything they say, act and think. Who do you think you are hiding from? We all have our "demons" and to think we are "getting away with them" because no one is witnessing them is ludicrous. It is a lie of the enemy to make you continue your life of sin. We must die to thyself and begin a new life in His creation, not the world's. Nor must we live a life of our own fleshly desires. Sacrifice is a part of being a son or daughter of the Most High. Self control, compassion, love and forgiveness...all fruits we must bear. We must tame our tongue, we must be responsible for who we hang out with, how we conduct ourselves at work. We must glorify God in all we do. Saying "I was wrong", "I am sorry" for some even "I love you" are three of the hardest words to speak yet so characteristic of who He is and who we are called to be. Don't miss it. Be like Him in all ways.
