"Therefore
if any man be in Christ, he is a
new creature: old things are passed
away; behold, all things are become
new." -
2 Corinthians
5:17
Chances are,
as you begin the new year, you'll
still be dealing with the same
stuff you were dealing with in
December. While we can't wipe the
slate completely clean and start
over, we can resolve to become
better. Thinner. Healthier. Kinder.
More giving....compassionate. It's
never too late to get rid of our
bad habits and replace them with
good ones. And what better time
than at the start of a brand new
year?
Isn't it awesome that God has given
us everything we need to overcome
our junk and become who He created
us to be? And isn't it even more
awesome that in God's eyes, our
"old selves" don't even exist
anymore? When He looks at us, all
He sees is beautiful...clean...
shiny... NEW. So maybe our bodies
will continue to grow old
(groan...) but our minds can
continue to be renewed, and our
spirits will never wear out!
This year, be challenged to change.
Grow. Become the man or woman God
intends you to be. May 2013 be the
year of the NEW and IMPROVED
YOU!

unique Biblically

The ministry
selected for
January is an arm
of Ravi Zacharaih
International
Ministries, called
Wellspring
International.org.

directly to the
need.
Prize is two paid
writing assignments
for 1st place at
$75 each, 1 paid
assignment for 2nd
place at $75, and
3rd place receives
$25, If one of the
three winners is a
Silver member, he
or she will get a
one year paid Gold

Please enter this
contest and help us
promote this
ministry on the

mentioned above,
the prize will be
paid writing
