Renovating the Imperfect

#Lent, Think of Lent as a time when our story is being redefined and refurbished. For some odd reason I'm hooked on the HGTV series Fixer Upper. Chip and Joanna Gaines own & operate Magnolia Homes, a remodeling and design business in Waco, Texas. The couple saves, renews and rejuvenates homes that look hopeless, renovating the imperfect, and revealing them in a magnificent way. Chip and Jo breathe new life into these residences.

The apostle Paul wrote to the church at Ephesus: "...take a fresh breath and to let God renew your attitude and spirit..." [CLICK]  An aging home might not be the only thing in our life that requires a little rejuvenating. Our spiritual life may very well be in need of an ambitious makeover. Acknowledging that reno-work is needed requires honesty followed by cost and time of demoing the old me and letting God create a new person. The Psalmist penned, "...Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me..."
