Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.  2 Corinthians 5:17

Discouraged And Depressed? Do you ever get discouraged or depressed?  I think that all of us, if we are honest, have those times when life just gets to big for us to handle.  Those times when we are not sure if we are going to be able to make the next step or not.  None of us really like these times, but most all of us have been in and through them and have come out on the other side okay, in fact, sometimes even better than when we entered in.

What’s Your Instinct? In my life, when I am discourage or depressed, I find that my instinct is to go running as fast as I can to the Lord.  When I go running to Him, He always reminds me that I am a “NEW CREATION” in Him.  He reminds me that the old has passed away and is dead and should be buried and left buried and the new has come to life and should be enjoyed and shared.

Take A Moment! Whenever you get discouraged or depressed – take a few moments to let God remind you that in Him – YOU ARE A NEW CREATION!  God is always working on and through us.  He has not given up on us and neither should we!
