"Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house.
At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is doing. He is getting
the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on; you knew
that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently
He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and
does not seem to make any sense. What on earth is He up to? The
explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one
you thought of - throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor
there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were being
made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace. He
intends to come and live in it Himself.”
- C.S. Lewis,
Mere Christianity
Very thought provoking words indeed.
What do you think of this idea?
Can you imagine what it would be like if Christ wanted to come and live in 'your' home?
1 Corinthians 3:16 - Don’t you realize that all of you together are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God lives in you?
Living in Grace
