TRANSFORMATION

by Lewis E. Thomas

TRANSFORMATION
 
I discovered this year that God has given me a talent I never knew I had!
Now, I really enjoy using it and doing so makes me happy and glad!
 
I take "OLD MOWER BLADES" and turn them into knives and a "WORK OF ART"!
Removing the old paint and the rust is where I always "START"!
 
After I remove the "RUST" I place the blade in my "VICE" and I tighten it down to hold it fast!
I begin making changes to it "Here and There" to make it "MUCH MORE" than it was in "THE PAST"!
 
I draw my design out on it to determine how I want it to look on the outside!
As I'm shaping it into what it "WILL BECOME" the process brings me "JOY AND PRIDE"!
 
I create heat and sparks with my grinder as I remove unwanted areas that need to go!
At times I have to pound on it with a Heavy Hammer to straighten it out you know!
 
After I get its final form "CUT OUT" it begins to look like something "DIFFERENT AND NEW"!
"HEAT and PRESSURE" had to be applied to it to "FASHION IT" and bring it through!
 
Now, I grind the blunt edge on both sides evenly until the edge becomes "VERY SHARP"!
As I see the old blade looking much better it brings satisfaction to my heart!
 
Now I "FINISH" the process by polishing the "BLADE EDGE" to a mirror finish until I see my face reflected therein!
As I build each knife I'm reminded of how God "REDESIGNED" me and made me "COMPLETELY NEW" when He washed away my "SINS!
 
He "CONTINUES" His work on me day after day, to attain a polished shine on my eternal soul!
And "ONE DAY" He will show His angels that "HIS FACE" is "NOW" reflected within "MY" "SOUL"!
 
If you feel as worthless as an old mower blade "WORN OUT" from being a slave to Satan and Sin!
Just "CRY OUT TO JESUS" at the Cross and He will remake you into a "WORK OF ART" that is "TOTALLY NEW" and "BORN AGAIN"!
