I Know I've Been Changed

I used to LOVE watching movies with curse words and sexual jokes.. Now when I hear that stuff, I cringe... that's how I know I'm changed. When I hear my old favorite songs (that I used to turn up to at clubs), but nothing in me jumps.... that's how I know I'm changed. When I see old flames I used to "mess with", and the only thing that comes to mind is to tell them about Jesus.. that's how I know I'm changed. When I write music, I'm not glorifying sex, money, cars and clothes.. But I'm exposing it for what it is (temporal happiness)... that's how I know I'm changed. When someone deliberately disrespects me, no longer do I respond in anger.. But I hold my peace.... that's how I know I'm changed. When women flirt with me, no longer do I give in to my lust.. But I have the strength to resist that temptation..that's how I know I'm changed. When I'm deeply stressed, no longer am I smoking, drinking or putting knives to my wrist.. But I pray about it... that's how I know I'm changed. 

2 Corinthians 5:17 "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.".. JESUS did the change in me.. And that's how I know I'm changed.
