Faith's Checkbook (By: C.H. Spurgeon)

April 13, 2011
                                             This Body Transformed

Who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body.
                                                      ~ Philippians 3:21

JUST AS JESUS LAID HIS LIFE
DOWN FOR US, SO ARE WE TO
DO THE SAME THING FOR OUR
FRIENDS AND FAMILY.
  "Often when we are racked with pain or we are tempted by the passions of the flesh, we do not think the word "lowly" at all too vigorous a translation. We are lowly, because our bodies ally us with animals, and even link us with the dust!
  But our Savior shall change all this. We shall be fashioned like His own body of glory. This will take place in all who believe in Jesus. By faith their souls have been transformed, and their bodies will undergo such a renewal as shall fit them for their regenerated spirits. The thought of this transformation should help us to bear the trials of today and all the woes of the flesh.
TO ACT JUSTLY, TO
 LOVE MERCY, AND
TO WALK HUMBLY
WITH YOU GOD.
  In a little while we shall be as Jesus now is - no more aching brows, no more swollen limbs, no more dim eyes, no more fainting hearts. "Conformed to His glorious body." What an expression!"
(By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
