 help us any more.
+We are invited to be renewed in our spirit - through the work of the Holy Spirit of Jesus in us. That is
+needed, it is very important. We are promised new life, which starts when we come to faith, and which
+grows in us. We are invited to put on a new self, just as we put on new cloth in the morning. This is an
+offer which comes with and in Christ Jesus. It is given to us, we cannot make it. But we can put it on.
+We can live in it.
+Bitterness fades away, when we turn to him. Wrath seems to cede - and hope remains. He gives us a deep
+peace. So often, his possibilities are hidden to us. And that is somehow natural: he is God after all. But
+he wants to be there with his wonders, in our life, day by day. And he is. His creation is so fantastic,
+when we just open our eyes. He is the good companion. Lord, come, see our weakness, our complete defeat.
+But you are Lord, today, and forever!
