| 0:00.0 | How are you doing this morning? Have you been applying the things we've been talking |
| 0:08.1 | about in these last few episodes of the morning mindset? I'm Carrie Green. I'm here to encourage you in your faith and to help you get on the path |
| 0:16.6 | toward being in the world practically everything Jesus Christ has redeemed you to be. |
| 0:24.0 | You see, the Bible says you are a new creation. |
| 0:27.0 | So there's an element in which you need to believe that. |
| 0:31.0 | But there's also an aspect in which you've got to begin behaving as if it's true, because it is true. |

| 1:40.8 | Those old habits that plague you and are so hard to overcome can be overcome the first step is to |
| 1:47.6 | commit yourself to overcoming them to say with God's help I will overcome this. The second step was to commit |
| 1:56.8 | yourself to the hard work of obedience it's going to be to overcome those things. |
| 2:01.7 | Not to give yourself excuses, not to give reasons why you're |
| 2:08.5 | the way you are and take that for some reason as an inevitable thing that you can't overcome. |
