If we have been united with Christ in His death, we will certainly also be united with Him in His resurrection. For we know that our old self was crucified with Him so that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin— because anyone who has died has been freed from sin. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! 

(Romans 6:5-7, 2 Corinthians 5:17)

We celebrate the sacrifice and resurrection of Christ and that truth sets us free to live lives that are transformed into something new and beautiful through Him. Are you living awake to that truth? God wants us to come alive for we have been set free through Christ's love!
