2 Corinthians 5:17-21
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. (18) All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; (19) that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. (20) Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. (21) For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
What a magnificent Passage to be the beginning on the first day of my new life with a re-regulated heart, one which is beating as it should. Praise You, Lord.
Now, lead me in using this power and energy for Your Kingdom, that I will answer my calling to be an ambassador of reconciliation.
