Spiritual Renewal
Scripture: John 3:3
"Jesus replied, 'Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.'"
Devotion:
Take a moment to consider what it means to be “born again.” Just as physical birth marks the beginning of life, spiritual renewal marks the beginning of our life in Christ. This new birth isn't just a change in behavior—it's a transformation of the heart. Through the work of the Holy Spirit, we become new creations. Every area of our lives—our desires, our purpose, our relationships—is touched by this renewal. As we begin this journey, may we invite the Holy Spirit to do a deep work within us.
Reflection:
How has the reality of being "born again" impacted your life? What areas still need the transforming touch of the Holy Spirit?
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank you for the gift of new life through Jesus Christ. Help me to understand the depth of what it means to be born again. Open my heart to your Spirit’s work, and renew every part of me. May I walk in the fullness of your grace today.
