It sits in slumped and disheveled pain, groaning for the restoration that can only be accomplished by the hands of him who built it in the first place. The good news is that the divine Builder will not relent until everything about his house is made totally new again. The bad news is that you and I are living right in the middle of the restoration process. We live each day in a house that is terribly broken, where nothing works exactly as intended. But Emmanuel lives here as well, and he is at work returning his house to its former beauty. Often it doesn't look like any real restoration is going on at all. But that's the way it is with restoration; things generally get worse before they get better. Someday you will live forever in a fully restored house. How can you live above the damage? Even better, how can you be an active part of the restoration that is at the heart of God's plan of redemption? That's what this book is all about |
