No Comments My fourth sermon in the series, “who you are in Christ”, comes from 2 Corinthians 5:17, “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old has passed away, behold, the new has come.” There is much healing of old wounds and hurts in this verse, and so much hope as well.

What does it mean to be a child of God for me this morning? I think back to the time I received Him and believed in His name (spring, 1996, when I was 30 years old). I think how I’ve grown in Him over the years, how He’s trained me up and praised me and disciplined me. I picture a heavenly Father who’s held my hand, let me go on my own, “spank me” at times. I think about His loving care and parenting over me. I think about the right He has given me to be called His child. I rejoice today in standing in this and trusting in this and walking in this way. It is a blessing.
