UNDER RENOVATION
Today's reading: Philippians 3-4

"...But I keep working toward that day when I will finally be all that Christ Jesus saved me for and wants me to be." Philippians 3:12 NLT

If there were to be a sign, a label, a scrolling marquee or a tattoo that I would choose to advertise my life, it would have to be--Under Renovation.

I'm not who He intends me to be--yet.

I'm not all He expects me to be--yet.

I'm not 'all that'--yet.

I'm up at at it every day with a deep down desire to improve where He needs me to improve, to correct where He needs me to correct, to expunge what I need to be rid of, to repent of what I've done--blatantly or without knowing.

I want my life to be a constant renovation project of God's.

I want the improvements He wants for me. I want the demolition to take place that He needs me to undergo. I want to stand before Him on the day appointed for me and receive His acceptance and entrance into His home for me.

Today's problem area to tackle:  Making sure I'm seeking His renovations for myself, prayerfully and wholeheartedly--and not eyeballing everyone else and determining theirs!
