Speaking about the end times, Jesus said,
“I tell you the truth, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne…..” Matt. 19.28
The word “renewal” has similar meaning to renovation. So Jesus is going to renovate all things.
We are currently renovating our church facility…. painting, adding new blinds, etc.
We are not chucking the building. We are adding to what was already there. Renovating.
As we look to our future in the New Heavens and New Earth, we see God renovating all things, not throwing things away, but making them the way they are supposed to be. And I believe that God is in the process of doing that now. I believe He is renovating me to be like He created me to be.
And as I continue on this journey of following Jesus, I pray that He continues to renovate me to be like Him. And one day I know that He will finish the project, and I will be as He wants me to be.
