“Has the LORD redeemed you? Then speak out! Tell others he has redeemed you from your enemies.” (Psalm 107:2 NLT)
Art restoration is time consuming. The restorers work meticulously, one section at a time. They clean the painting and touch up faded and chipped paint. They bring back the artwork to what the original artist intended it to be. In order to do this, the restorers have to be deeply familiar and respectful of the original artist’s work.
The Lord is our redeemer. He restores us to what the Father intended us to be. He works on us inch by inch, through our entire lifetime. He cleans us, fills in the gaps, and brings us back to our former glory. He is patient and diligent. He is passionate about this work. When we remain in the Lord’s presence, when we are open to Him and open with Him--His grace cleans away the layers of grime, freeing us to be who we were created to be.
Has the Lord restored you? Has He freed you from oppression? Then speak out! Express your gratitude. Share your restoration with others and give all the credit to your Redeemer.
