God works in unexpected ways,
His transformation surprises us.
Our old self, corrupted by deceitful desires,
Must be put off, like a worn-out garment.
As believers, we’re called to leave behind
The familiar paths of our former lives,
And embrace the new life found in Christ,
A life renewed in the spirit of our minds.
This new self reflects God’s righteousness,
A holiness that sets us apart,
Guided by His Word, we reject sinful patterns,
Embracing godly living, not mere rituals.
So let us cultivate a genuine relationship with God,
Not bound by religious routines,
But anchored in His compassion, justice, and love,
As we walk the path of faith, step by step.
