9. Choose Purity and Power

Are you tired of hurting your loved ones? Do you live in constant regret for your past mistakes? Have you ever wished you could be washed clean inside and out? Then we have great news—you can be! God has a plan that can completely wash all your sins away and supercharge your character. Preposterous? Not at all!

The Bible says, “We were buried with [Christ] through baptism” (Romans 6:4). When you accept Christ, the old life dies and the Lord promises to forget all your sins! Not only that, He can help you overcome every sinful habit. Did you know that while the cross is mentioned 28 times in the Bible, baptism is mentioned 97 times? It must be pretty important—and no wonder, it signifies a new life with the haunting, sinful past buried and forgotten.
