remade

2 corinthians 5:17 says Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! Think about it if you have accepted Jesus Christ as your savior then he has washed the slate clean. He sees nothing  that happened before only what you do after you receive him. You become like a new person because He washed your sins away and you became you white as snow. Lets face it some of the choices you have made in the past were probably not the  best of choices. Maybe you were a cutter, or had an eating disorder. Maybe you were nothing that extreme or maybe you were worse. Boom the Day that you accepted christ all that was gone. You are worth so much more to be stuck in those lies of the world. The reason you are worth more is because God the most high loves you and we are his sons and daughters. More often than not how much do we know all the answers and go through life rehearsing them instead of living them. How many people believe that thier past is thier past but thier past is not thier future. There is healing from pain and the hurts that you have had in the past. After that, that is what gives you strength to help others who may be struggling and to point them to Jesus so they to can become a new creation in him. You have to ask yourself sometimes where is your heart. Are you pointing people in the right direction to become a new creation? Or are you stuck to much in your past to beleive that you are a new creation yourself. You are more than your past, but God is your present and your future.
There's a girl in the cornerWith tear stains on her eyesFrom the places she's wanderedAnd the shame she can't hide
She says, "How did I get here?I'm not who I once was.And I'm crippled by the fearThat I've fallen too far to love"
But don't you know who you are,What's been done for you?Yeah don't you know who you are?
You are more than the choices that you've made,You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,You are more than the problems you create,You've been remade.
Well she tries to believe itThat she's been given new lifeBut she can't shake the feelingThat it's not true tonight
She knows all the answersAnd she's rehearsed all the linesAnd so she'll try to do betterBut then she's too weak to try
But don't you know who you are?
You are more than the choices that you've made,[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/you-are-more-lyrics-tenth-avenue-north.html ]You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,You are more than the problems you create,You've been remade.
You are more than the choices that you've made,You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,You are more than the problems you create,You've been remade.
'Cause this is not about what you've done,But what's been done for you.This is not about where you've been,But where your brokenness brings you to
This is not about what you feel,But what He felt to forgive you,And what He felt to make you loved.
You are more than the choices that you've made,You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,You are more than the problems you create,You've been remade.
You are more than the choices that you've made,You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,You are more than the problems you create,You've been remade.
You've been remadeYou've been remade.You've been remade.You've been remade.
