WHAT YOU CAN DO THIS WEEK
Go to a quiet place where you can spend some time with God, reflecting on the sermon. How would you describe who you actually are? How does God see who you are in your new self? What are your thoughts and feelings about any differences between the two? Ask God to help you picture what your life would look like if you lived more from your new self than your old self. Ask God to help you discern those things you tend to rely on to tell you who you are rather than God. Do you tend to rely on possessions, performance, what others think, or something else? Confess the needs you have to God that you are trusting something else to meet rather than God providing them.
