We all know that frustrating feeling. You want to change, try to make a change, but fail to change. You know something needs to be different, but you keep finding yourself in the same cycle of starting, trying, and failing. The good news is that Jesus makes us new. Not through our own willpower, but with His help. Not through behavior modification, but through spiritual transformation. And usually not all at once, but through small, practical habits that He uses to shape us over time. 

 

Jesus invites us to Stop. Slow. Start.
