WHAT ARE YOU BUILDING?
After all is said and done, when we net it all out, we can compare life to a basic matter of building. Indeed, all of us are building something – whether it’s family, reputations, skills, careers, relationships, etc. Of paramount importance is how we build spiritual covenants with Jesus Christ.
The late great Daniel Webster served as secretary of state for three U.S. presidents. I love how he framed the issue of what we should be building in life. “If we work on marble it will perish. If we work on brass, time will efface it. If we erect temples, they will crumble to dust. But if we work on men’s immortal minds, if we imbue them with high principles, with just fear of God and love of their fellows, we engrave on those tablets something which time cannot efface, and which will brighten and brighten to all eternity.”
My friend, build wisely and eternally.
Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING. Maranatha!
