Devotionals
Yesterday was demolition day and oh my it was noisy. To my surprise though I thought that once all the goodies were knocked out that would be the end of the banging......apparently not! They did however manage to get the floor tiles laid, which is good progress.
Renovations are much like the work the Holy Spirit does with us after we are saved. Salvation ensures the immediate rebirth of our spirit from death to eternal life but the renewing of our minds takes work and that is the Holy Spirit's job.
The Holy Spirit will take us through some difficult times where our soul gets rough edges knocked off it and maybe like carpets there are things that need to be ripped out as well and like home renovations the process can be painful. The goal though is the transformation of our hearts to reflect the image of Christ.
Like home renovations too, the pain eventually ends and we are left with a masterpiece of beauty that brings glory to God.
