Unless God Builds the House

There are some things in my life right now that are not going according to my plans. There are some changes and uncertainty with my job and I wish our house would have sold months ago which is putting my plan for another baby on hold for right now. I have been struggling for the past couple weeks dealing with the stress of these issues.

Saturday night I was reading before bed and the scripture Psalms 127:1 "Unless the Lord build the house, they labor in vain." was in the book. I put the book aside and fell asleep meditating on that scripture. Sunday morning at church, our guest speaker David Cooper preached on that scripture. I guess the Lord was really trying to get a message to me.

I can stress, worry and try to fix the issues in my life but unless it is the Lord fixing my issues, I labor in vain. I have been laboring in vain. I am ready to be the subcontractor and let the Lord be the builder. He makes the plans and sets the schedule. The plans He has for me are for my good and will give me a future and a hope

Hebrews 10:35 and 36

Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise.

My confidence in the Lord the Builder has been renewed.
