What was your motivation for seeking salvation? Was it to be changed or just to escape the consequence of sin? Do you fully believe that God was telling the truth when He said, "Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come?" (2 Corinthians 5:17)
For a long time, my motivation was just to escape the consequence of sin. I resisted the change. Not anymore. Now I want success, and not for myself, but to bring glory to my God, who not only created me, but saved me when I went astray, and at an incalculable cost. I am a new creation, and I will keep the old man in the grave.
