Do You Want to Save the Changes?

“And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory” (2 Corinthians 3:18).

Kids these days have no idea.

There was a day when if you didn’t save what you were working on, the next time you turned on the computer your work was gone. All gone. Nada. Gone.

It’s one of the worst feelings in the world.

I was in seminary. I was working on a paper. I was almost done with the 15 page report when the power went out. Had I been saving my work as I was working on the paper? OF COURSE NOT!!! Gone. Gone. Just gone.

I had to start all over.

It became my standard practice to save my work every ten to fifteen minutes.

The question, “Do you want to save the changes?” is a fantastic question we should ask ourselves on a daily basis. Every day, we are either becoming more like Christ or we are drifting further away from Christ. It all depends on the decisions we made throughout the day.

At the days end, do you like the changes that were made?

Being transformed into Christ’s image is an intentional act. Are you more like him today? Then save the changes and repeat. Are you less like Christ today? Then delete those changes and try again.

So what will be at the end of today? Do you want to save the changes?
