"Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you 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 you are not surprised. But presently He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably, and does not seem to make 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 going to be made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace."
This is one of my favorite quotes. I like it because it has application to our lives and in many ways details some of the inexplicable events of life. Today's message is a little different. It's something I have wanted to share with you for sometime, but I won't do it all at once. So I am revealing it in stages.
It's the story of my childhood and the miracle of Castle Valley. This will take some time, so hang on with me one week-at-a-time.
