We watch a lot of renovation shows and, in fact, are in the middle of doing our own project with a rental property. So we know a lot about the subject. Basically, it’s taking something old and making it new again.
Nothing is free and someone has to pay the cost for it. But the benefits are the new and transformed life given to the old creation and the years of extended use.
God renovates our hearts and transforms us into new creatures, making us like new again. He paid for our sins when he gave himself as a sacrifice for our sins. When we receive him, we are given eternal life and reap the rewards of our acceptance into his kingdom!
Romans 12:2 (NLT) - “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”
