The Ultimate Makeover

A woman one day had a total makeover she completely altered her body and face But only one week after all the surgery she had she found herself standing before God's pearly gates She said Lord, "what's going on around here You told me I had twenty more years?" The Lord replied," I didn't even recognize you and that could be the reason why you are now here" What is the ultimate makeover? What is it that we feel we must change? What are we really reaching for? What do we hope to attain? Botox injections, breast augmentations, changes that require a surgical team We sometimes take an extreme approach to obtain the American dream Pimped out, tricked out the ultimate fantasy car But without God in your life you won't get very far The ultimate makeover what you really need in your life Is to accept as your Savior the Lord Jesus Christ We all have a God shaped hole in our hearts that only He can fulfill And no makeover of your fleshly self can completely satisfy that bill To live your life to the fullest extent you must makeover your inner being For your soul is the essence of who you are the core that God will be seeing Neither bulking up nor becoming slim and trim will to God make much of a difference It's the grace, peace and serenity inside you that will change your outward appearance So confess that Jesus is your Lord and Savior and believe His Father raised Him from the dead For your faith in the Lord Christ should not occur only inside your head It's not just the consciousness of your thoughts It's how your soul accepts God So drink of the blood of the new covenant of Christ a makeover transforming your heart For true belief involves your whole being it's not just cerebral and intellectual perceptions It's the heart , mind and Spirit of God that should be your personal inceptions The ultimate makeover the ultimate transformation Will occur when you accept Jesus Christ's resurrection and salvation So be recreated with a clean heart renewed and born again the ultimate makeover that comes from within But if you continue to hold sin in your heart there's not much that God can do And you'll have a harder time finding forgivingness if your heart's not contrite and true So ask the Lord for peace and grace and let the Holy Spirit inside you take over Be revived, renewed and born again the ultimate Godly makeover
