God is Beautifully Arranging You
August 17, 2019
BIBLE MEDITATION:
Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? 1 Corinthians 3:16
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
I’ve had the privilege of pastoring churches in the midst of building campaigns, and it’s been a faith-growing experience to watch God work. In fact, I will never forget the first church where that happened: in Fort Pierce, Florida.
There was an elderly architect who was over the job, and he said something I will never forget. As we were looking over the plans I said, “It can’t be expensive because we don’t have much money.” And he replied, “Oh, my boy. Good architecture is not an arrangement of beautiful materials. It is a beautiful arrangement of materials.”
ACTION POINT:
The Lord can take people like you and me from the quarry of sin, and with His grace and His Word, He can fit us together into a majestic temple of God. The church of the Lord Jesus Christ is a beautiful arrangement of materials. You are an irreplaceable part of His workmanship.
