“You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.”
Ephesians 4:22-24 NIV
Today’s photo features the same tree with different lights shining on it. If you study the tree in each image you may notice different details but in reality it is still the same tree.
Today is Transformation Tips Tuesday and I encourage you to examine yourself in different lights, in different situations, and different seasons of life.
When you became a Christian, you “put off your old self” and “put on the new self”. What does that mean to you? How have you incorporated that idea into your transformation and your daily walk with Christ? Are you being renewed and changed daily by the time you spend with Christ?
Just like the tree in the picture, you may look differently in different lights, but you are still the same person. Let’s just be sure the light that shines on us is the light of Christ so others will want to learn more about Him.

The pictures today made me think of those classic silver Christmas trees with the revolving color wheel that would light the tree in different colors. Though we never had one of those in my childhood home, I remember them, and even recently saw a Facebook post of someone who has hers displayed now. Your reminder of “same tree…different lights” will be with me today. May my testimony be the same, despite the circumstances of life, and may I be reminded that He is the same from generation to generation.
