“RENEWED!”
2 Corinthians 4:16-18
“Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.”
It is fascinating to see an old abused item renewed and made whole once again. I recall a friend years ago who found an old derelict car that was so rusted out it seemed impossible to do anything with it.
I was wrong. Several years later I returned to the area and was invited to assist my friend in loading that old wreck into a truck to transport it to an auto show. I could not believe that he would want to take that hunk of junk anywhere but to the wrecking yard!
Then I saw it. Wow! What a transformation! It looked better than it did when it originally came off the assembly line. IT HAD BEEN RENEWED! My friend's hands had created something beautiful! It was his handiwork.
In the same way, God wants to take the old wrecks of our lives and renew them into things of beauty that will show forth His handiwork.
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
