Live a Victorious Life

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here.—2 Corinthians 5:17 (NIV)
Change can be difficult, but Jesus offers the opportunity for an entirely new way of thinking. The best part is that when you invite Him to take over, you don’t have to change yourself. He transforms you and guides you to begin with a new perspective and a trusting heart.
Lord, You are all I need to live a victorious life.
