You Can Spend Years Trying to Become Someone You Already Are

You Can Spend Years Trying to Become Someone You Already Are

Trying to become a better Christian can leave us focused on where we fall short, wondering why we aren’t further along. In Christ, we are already a new creation, and our struggles don’t undo what He has accomplished.

This short reflection invites us to discover who we are as we walk with the Lord. He opens our eyes to the life He has already given us, and as we come to know that reality through relationship with Him, it begins to transform how we live.

Scripture references: 2 Corinthians 5:17.

Topics: Identity in Christ, new creation, spiritual growth, freedom from striving, transformation, walking with God.

Related Scriptures: Ephesians 1:17-18; 2 Corinthians 3:18; Colossians 3:9-10; Philippians 1:6.
