Titus 3: he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit
Paul is talking about being born again. The people had been living sin-filled lives before Christ came. There was hate and envy. They pursued pleasure without thinking of the consequences. Now we are heirs to the kingdom. We need to represent our Lord well.
My friend told me about the born-again experiences of her son and his wife yesterday. He has a criminal past, but he says he is a new person now. They await the birth of their first child any day. What a blessing for everyone involved! A new life and a new family to reflect God's love to the world!
Prayer: Lord, be with this new little family as they welcome their son. Help all of them to feel Your love and to reflect it to all they come into contact with.
Amen
