MONDAY MORNING MOMENTS
Jan. 25, 1999 Vol. IV Number 04
London businessman Lindsay Clegg told the story of a warehouse. The building had been empty for months and needed repairs. Vandals had damaged the doors, smashed the windows, and strewn trash all over the place. As he showed a prospective buyer the property, he took pains to say that he would replace the broken windows, bringing in a crew to correct any structural damage, and clean up the garbage. The buyer said, "Forget about the repairs. When I buy this place, I'm going to build something completely different. I don’t want the building; I want the site. "
That’s God’s message to us! Compared with the renovation God has in mind, our efforts to improve are own lives are as trivial as sweeping a warehouse slated for the wrecking ball. When we become God’s the old life is over. He makes all things new. .
All He wants is the site and the permission to build. There are still some trying to “reform” but God offers “redemption.” All we have to do is give him the " property " and he will do the necessary " building."
“Look at the Nations and watch - and be UTTERLY AMAZED. for I am going to do something in YOUR days that you would not believe even if you were told” Habakkuk 1:5
