5th Sunday of Easter

 

He Makes all things New. Rev. 21:5

Do you ever watch those shows on TV where people flip houses?

They take an old, dated and dilapidated house

And turn it into a new and amazing one.

One that the owners could never have imagined.

We have been flipping our churches the last few years.

Making them fresh and new.

But what about ourselves?

Are we pouring old wine into new wine skins?

Are we we bringing the same old, tired and routine attitudes

Into a a newly flipped church?

The newness of our churches,

Must reflect the newness of our spirit!

It is time to flip and resurrect our Faith!

Add a little pop to it!

Jesus is the ultimate flipper!

We must invite Him into our hearts

And ask for a do over;

Tear down those walls that separate us and give us an open concept; an open heart.

Paint a new coat of excitement on our hearts.

Freshen up that Faith!

On the Last Day Jesus will come with a New Heavens and a New Earth

And the Old and worn out heavens and earth,

They Will be flipped.

And we must flip our Hearts and Souls.

If we hope to enter into that New Heavens and Earth.

Because He is not going to let our old spirit come in and trash it all over again!

What needs to be flipped in our spiritual life?

What tired and routine attitudes need to be thrown out,

So that we can have a fresh look;

A new attitude

A New beginning.

On the Last Day Jesus is going to come on the clouds with all of His angels,

And He is going to flip,

The Heavens and the Earth.

He is going to take this weary, old bombed out, world

And wipe every tear from its eyes;

And there will be no more death or mourning;

Crying out or pain;

For the old world will be flipped,

And a new one will take its place.
