TRANSFORMED BY THE CREATOR
TRANSFORMED BY THE CREATOR
At an elderly age-Zechariah
Is told-he is going
To be a father
But instead of expressing JOY and wonder
At the prospect
Of having
A much prayed for child
Zechariah responds with skepticism
“Then Zechariah
Said to the angel
'HOW shall I know this?
For I am
An old man
And my wife (Elizabeth)
Is advanced in age'” Luke 1:18
Maybe a little bit
Of the
“TOO GOOD to be true” syndrome
Seen through human understanding
His response is understandable
Maybe we too
Are like that IN LIFE
When we experience something
Really really good in life
But by faith alone
We can become transformed
By the creator
We become-TRANSFORMED-
By the LOVE of God
“Do NOT conform
To the pattern of this world
But be TRANSFORMED
By the renewing
Of your mind
Then you will be able
To test and approve
What GOD'S WILL is-
His good-pleasing
And perfect will” Romans 12:2-3
Zechariah became transformed
By a MIRACLE-in his life
I BEGAN to become transformed
By a miracle in my life
WHEN I was 22
After getting up
From my deathbed
When I was 22
And living with
A lifetime of physical pain
I am AMAZED
That I am still here
Some 40 years later
TRANSFORMED by the CREATOR
Transformed-by the miracle-
Of GOD'S LOVE
Through God-and through
MY FAITH IN HIM
“And we ALL........
Are being transformed
Into his IMAGE
With everlasting glory
Which comes from the Lord
Who is the SPIRIT” 2 Corinthians 3:18
Zechariah was transformed
I was transformed
YOU can be too-
TRANSFORMED by the CREATOR
If you just BELIEVE
Sometimes
We don't really
Want to believe
“The too good to be true”
But we just have to REMEMBER
Having a CHANGE OF HEART
In life
That the spiritual journey
IS NOT about our willpower
But about our WILLINGNESS
To let GOD TRANSFORM US
Dear Lord=GOD OF THE IMPOSSIBLE
Please give us the FAITH
To be
TRANSFORMED BY THE CREATOR
