Agents of transformation

Yesterday, we discovered the radical transformation which takes place in someones life when they become a Christian. We live under a new law, free from the law of sin and death.

Today, we discover our new purpose in life.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.

2 Corinthians 5:17-20

Our lives have been transformed, and we have been enlisted as agents of transformation.

We are God's ambassadors, using our new freedom to urge others to be reconciled to him. To come and find true life in him. To know the transformation which we ourselves have known.

To know reconciliation with God and the transformed life he has for us is a wonderful privelage.

To be his agents of transformation, ambassadors for him is a unique honour.
