Invasion of the body snatchers.

we've all seen them, right? The freaky friday type of deals that happen on t.v and in movies.
Who knew that was a biblical concept? i certainly didn't until like ten seconds ago.

if you are completely lost as to what i'm talking about let me break it down for you.
A t.v show i used to watch relentlessly as a young warrior was a little ditty called "lizzie McGuire" and of all the episodes my fav was "Those freaking Mcguires".
In this episode Matt and lizzie, typical sibling rivals [lizzie a delcate 14 year old and matt a rough and rowdy 10 year old] some how switched bodies! they had to spend a day walking in the lives of each other.  Ultimately getting to know each other and gaining more respect for each other as a person. blah blah blah.
The coolest part about this episode, and all other types of similar content, is the fact that only their spirits switch! on the OUTSIde they look like themselves but on the inside they are a completely different person. Cool right. it's like a spirit swap.
Who knew the bible was as cool as t.v and movies!?
Here, check out what god as to say about body swapping.

It's really the coolest thing ever, God is inviting us to swap spirits. he's already walked in our shoes, now he's giving us an opportunity to walk in his.
on the outside it'll look like us, but on the inside it's jesus. Cool right.
it's like were walking Jesus', he's doing all the work, just in OUR bodies!

It's just like "invasion of the body snatchers" except less alien-y and more abundant life, fullness of joy-y.

What a switch right!
God really does think of everything! he's so legit!

  1. yessss!! <3
    i was just thinking similarly this way last night..
    i was telling the middle schoolers how Jesus said He's the light of the world. Then afterward I was thinking how Scripture also says that we are the light of the world.. so basically we're called the same thing that Jesus calls Himself..
    haha.. i luv it :)
