God has the power to transform your life if you invite Him to do so. Your decision is straight-forward: whether or not to allow the Father’s transforming power to work in you and through you. God stands at the door and waits; all you have to do is knock. When you do, God always answers.

Sometimes, the demands of daily life can drain you of strength or rob you of the joy that is yours in Christ. But even on your darkest day, you can be comforted by the knowledge that God has the power to renew your spirit and your life.

Are you in need of a new beginning? If so, turn your heart toward God in prayer. Are you weak or worried? Take the time – or, more accurately, make the time – to delve deeply into God’s Holy Word. Are you spiritually depleted? Call upon fellow believers to support you, and call upon Christ to renew your sense of joy and thanksgiving. When you do, you’ll discover that the Creator of the universe is in the business of making all things new – including you.

“I have baptized you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.” (Mark 1:8)
