How wonderfully doth the new-born soul differ from his former self. He liveth a new life, he walketh in a new way, he steereth his course by a new compass and towards a new coast. His principle is new, his pattern is new, his practices are new, his projects are new, all is new. He ravels out all he had wove before, and employeth himself wholly about another work. ---- George Swinnocke, 1660.
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away, behold, the new has come (I Corinthians 5:14-15, 17).
A hymn to read, sing, hum, or whistle, to the glory of God: Be Thou My Vision (ancient Irish poem, ca. 8th. century).
