Morning — August 5 — Romans 6:4

We were therefore buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may walk in newness of life. — Romans 6:4Your union with Christ means your old self is not reformed but replaced. Because you died with Him, sin no longer defines who you are. Your obedience now flows from a new identity, making holiness your natural worship rather than a forced duty.
