17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
Do you get mad every time somebody tries to correct you, or tell you what to do, because you always have to be right? If you answered yes, I am sure that you are not a happy person. You cannot change others, but you can allow God to change you so that things don't bother you anymore.
With Jesus Christ as your Savior, you can learn how to live a different way. You can have peace. You can sleep well at night. You can like yourself. You can restore relationships that have been ruined. Your mind can be renewed to be like Jesus', if you read His Word and ask Him to help you live the abundant life He came to give you (see John 10:10).
Prayer:
Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.Do not cast me away from Your presence, and do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. In Jesus' name. Amen.
