In other words…

Tends toward TMI, so here's the short list: guitar and banjo (both of which have been much neglected as of late), bicycling (ibid), dogs, very black tea, and contemplating and commenting on deep philosophical thoughts about which I have had no academic or professional training. Oh, also reading, writing, but I shy away from arithmetic. View all posts by dawnlizjones

Good positive scripture! I know when I asked God’s Holy Spirit to enter my life, other things had to leave to make room it seems to be an ongoing process. The more we ask God to fill our hearts, the less room there is for the negative old us. Thank you for sharing your walk of faith!

Great verse. It was the first one I ever memorized after becoming a Christian more than 30 years ago. Yes, believers are new creatures indeed!
