Unfinished Works
June 28, 2017
Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord!
Romans 7:2425
At his death, the great artist Michelangelo left many unfinished projects. But four of his sculptures were never meant to be completed. The Bearded Slave, the Atlas Slave, the Awakening Slave, and the Young Slave, though they appear unfinished, are just as Michelangelo intended them to be. The artist wanted to show what it might feel like to be forever enslaved.
Rather than sculpting figures in chains, Michelangelo made figures stuck in the very marble out of which they are carved. Bodies emerge from the stone, but not completely. Muscles flex, but the figures are never able to free themselves.
My empathy with the slave sculptures is immediate. Their plight is not unlike my struggle with sin. I am unable to free myself: like the sculptures I am stuck, a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me (Rom 7:23). No matter how hard I try, I cannot change myself. But thanks be to God, you and I will not remain unfinished works. We wont be complete until heaven, but in the meantime as we welcome the transforming work of the Holy Spirit, He changes us. God promises to finish the good work He has begun in us (Phil. 1:6).
God, thank You that You make us new creatures through the work of Your Son Jesus Christ, freeing us from our slavery to sin.
He is the potter; we are the clay.
The war between the good we want to do and the bad we end up doing is a struggle for all Christ-followers. Paul places this tension as being between his inner man (his renewed heart and Holy Spirit-guided conscience) and the flesh (the fallen nature that still is drawn to sin). The good news is that someday we will be renewed in mind and bodyfree from the temptation to sin and the impact of our sinful choices.

You Can Be Deeply Passionate Sometimes |
You like people, but you're careful about who you get close to. Friendship is important to you... so important that you aren't just friends with anyone.
You don't fall in love easily. It takes you a long time to get used to someone. Intimacy doesn't come easily for you.
You are deeply passionate about several things in your life. You're not passionate about much... and the few passions you have are truly obsessions.
Your sense of humor is goofy and silly. You are good at making almost anyone laugh. |

You are a loner, and you’re fine with that. You find the most fulfillment in solitude. And you never feel more lonely than when you’re in a crowd.
You fall in love with ease and confidence. Even if you’ve had bad experiences in the past, each new love is a reason to start completely over.
You are deeply passionate about several things in your life. You’re not passionate about much... and the few passions you have are truly obsessions.
Your sense of humor is very physical. Your facial expressions or spot on imitations of people are hilarious.

You are a deep and contemplative person. You are as passionate as everyone else, but your passion is not always apparent.

I love playing with those TSA folks especially when they ask if I’m carrying a gun. I say “Yup” close my bag and move on. They can’t do squat about it.

Greetings to all at the Canteen!
To all our military men and women, past and present,
THANK YOU
for your service!
You Are Very Passionate
You like people, but you're careful about who you get close to. Friendship is important to you... so important that you aren't just friends with anyone.
You have cold feet when it comes to love. You have a lot of uncertainty until you convince yourself to dive right in.
You are a passionate person. You are free wheeling, fun loving, and ruled by your emotions.
Your sense of humor is very physical. Your facial expressions or spot on imitations of people are hilarious

Nice if you can get away with it. If I tried that, I’d be whisked off to jail so fast! LOL!
