To Be Made New
To Be Made New A whole new life. Isn’t that appealing? Doesn’t a new life sound great? You know, extreme makeover for a house? Extreme makeover for a person? New make up? New do? I don’t mean this in a bad sense. I don’t want to speak negatively about our present blessings. I want to be grateful. We have a lot for which to be thankful. And we are. But we also want something better. Isn’t that what America is all about? As parents, we hope to make sure our children and grand children have a better life. As good citizens, we try to preserve the future for others by ensuring their freedom, protection and prosperity. So – every once in a while – we vote for the other political party. We throw out the old bums so we can put in the new bums. All to make things better. To get better. To be better. On a personal level, that’s why we go on diets. Or go the gym. Or try to actually live on a budget. Make sacrifices now -- to make better things later. Paul knew about this. He knew all about. In today’s passage, he tells what it is all about. And why we should do it. Last week, it was how. Today, it’s why.
