Boldly claiming the ancient-fresh promises shared with us in the Scriptures can suddenly reveal a small glimpse of the infinitely large tapestry God is weaving with our lives. Our perspectives, in the process, may be completely flipped upside down, and our lives may start to make a little more sense.

Ever since The Fall, we have all been born into a burning building, or a sinking ship. Things are broken.

And then Jesus came. He showed us a new way to be human by creating a way for us to restore our relationship with our Creator into the fullness it was created for; a new way for the universe to function.

Jesus literally kicked down the door of our burning building, our broken world, and created a path of escape.

You don’t have to pace up and down the fiery halls anymore. Embrace the escape we are freely offered.

Fall back in love with the one who gave you a new life.

“Love God, embrace beauty, and live life to the fullest.” – Kyle Lake

2 Corinthians 5:17

New Living Translation

This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!

The Message

Now we look inside, and what we see is that anyone united with the Messiah gets a fresh start, is created new. The old life is gone; a new life burgeons! Look at it!

Today’s New International Version

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!
