Just a Thought: The Builders

2 Corinthians 3:6 “He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant - not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.”

The noted English architect Sir Christopher Wren was supervising the construction of a magnificent cathedral in London. A journalist thought it would be interesting to interview some of the workers, so he chose three and asked them this question, “What are you doing?” The first replied, “I’m cutting stone for a shabby 10 shillings a day.” The next answered, “I’m putting in 13 hard hours a day on this job.” But the last said, “I’m helping to construct one of London’s greatest cathedrals.”

It’s all a matter of perspective isn’t it? Whether you realize it or not, we too are building something. The same question can be asked of us. What are you doing? Well, I’m doing this or doing that! Or I’m going to church. Jesus encourages us to lift up our eyes. We get so earth bound… It’s bigger than that! We believe we are building up God’s Kingdom, the richest and greatest Kingdom this world will ever see! A forever Kingdom!
Perhaps we need to examine ourselves tosee if we need to make some changes in our perspective. We have the privilege of partaking in something amazing - and better yet, doing it for the King of Kings!
Let’s give our will and our life to the Lord today and focus on doing great things for the Kingdom! There is so much work to do!
