And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; and that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness

Ephesians 4:22-23 "And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; and that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness"
Are there things about the "old you" that you weren't crazy about? Maybe you felt you were too controlling, too weak, too compliant, too regimented, too rebellious..too bossy, too afraid, too inhibited, too critical, too unfocused, too indecisive, too willing to settle for less?
Guess what? You are invited by the Lord to shake off all the dust of the old you, and reveal what He has been working on underneath. Like a renovation project covered in scaffolding and plastic, you now have your grand opening!
Open the doors, cut the ribbon...The bottom line is that you don't forget to celebrate who God has made wonderful YOU! You are not the sum of your old definition. You are not who anyone has told you, you are. You are who God says you are. Your old self has been made new in the attitude of our mind, which is where things begin. Congratulations!
