"Imagine yourself living in a house. God comes to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what He's doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on: you knew that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently, He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of-throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were going to be made into a decent little cottage, but He is building a palace."
- C.S Lewis (Mere Christianity)
Let Him mold and shape you.
It might be difficult, no doubt about that, it might hurt at times too...
but the outcome is beautiful and most precious.
He loves us with a perfect love. Invite Him in, today.
Happy Tuesday, everyone!
