Day 17: Perfectly Imperfect


I finally get it, once again.

JESUS

came to make things NEW.

I finally get it, once again.

It isn't me who can make things NEW.

I finally get it, once again.

I can't turn water into wine. 

I can't make the blind see.

I can't heal the brokenhearted.

I can't, yet I try.

I strive,

 because 

as a

NEW CREATION IN HIM

I believe that I have to try 

to be that

NEW CREATION

who

acts perfectly

and

talks perfectly

&

lives perfectly.

But you know what? 

Besides being exhausting,

I can't

no matter how hard 

I strive to be that 

NEW CREATION

to produce the fruit of 

LOVE,

JOY

PEACE,

PATIENCE,

KINDNESS,

GOODNESS,

FAITHFULNESS,

GOODNESS

GENTLENESS,

and

SELF-CONTROL.

And guess what?

I fail every time,

because I am not the one who can produce it. 

Why was

THE BABY

born?

To be what I am not.

To live in me to produce what I can't.

I am a

NEW CREATION IN HIM, 

not in Joni.

You are a

NEW CREATION IN HIM, 

not in you.

JESUS is the perfect that covers all my imperfections.

JESUS is the perfect that covers all of your imperfections.

I feel free as I surrender 

all of me, 

so that

HE can fill me with all of 

HIM. 

There is a new girl in town,

and when you see something

you like in me

know that it is 

JESUS.

The 

HIM

who was Born

to live in me & to live in you

making us all

NEW CREATIONS.

All because JESUS took the walk from the CRADLE to the CROSS!

JESUS came to

 BIRTH HIS NEW in you.

Claim your PERFECT identity IN HIM

and LIVE as HIS!

CHRISTMAS IN JULY.

You are a 

NEW CREATION
