For I will take you from the nations, and gather you from all the countries, and bring you into your own land. I will sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols I will cleanse you. A new heart I will give you, and a new spirit I will put within you; and I will take out of your flesh the heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.” Ezekiel 36:24-26. St. Augustine said, “God provides the wind, but man must raise the sail.”
Let us pray, Loving Father, we thank You for calling us to leave behind our rebellious past and embrace newness and renewal in our hearts, lives, and actions. May we never resist Your renewing grace, but cooperate with You in establishing a new and better standard of life. Amen. “Let your light
shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
