You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to
put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires... ~ Ephesians
4:22
That's a challenging verse, isn't it?! We each surrendered our
heart to God and our old self was crucified with Christ when we became
Christians (Romans 6:6). Jesus reminds us that this surrender is
something each of us should do daily (Luke
9:23). We need to put the old sinful life aside every day and choose to
live for Jesus in response to God's grace. As we begin this fast, let's make it
our spiritual habit to consciously offer ourselves to the Lord and joyously
live under his lordship of Jesus each day.
