A New Creation in Christ in the New Year

Most of us fall short on our New Year's resolutions; after all, we are fallible, and change is hard. There is good news however. As Christians we are new creations in Christ, and therefore there is change within us that comes not from our fallible selves, but from infallible Christ. Even so, this does not mean we are immediately perfectly Christlike; we will still struggle, sometimes for long periods of time. During these times, we should not despair, as God, who so loved us that He sacrificed His own son for us, would not then reject us in our struggles. In addition, we should not be impatient, but trust that God, who is all-powerful, knows best the time for everything. In this way we can rest assured and let God lead our lives.
