Am I Moving?

I saw a picture of a building under construction. The foundation had been faulty and was being redone in areas, while walls were coming up on the sides where the foundation was strong. I was dreaming of course but there was no doubt in my spirit what this building represented...it was a picture of me. It was surrounded by sky scrapers so my mind thought only one thing. I was meant to be a sky scraper too. God was so patient with my arrogance. He explained how the size of the building had no relevance at this point. The foundation was the issue and if it wasn't corrected, there would be nothing to build upon. I was skeptical since the walls were being constructed at such a slow rate. He seemed a lot more positive; He was holding the blueprints and could visualize the finished structure.

He told me to be patient with the building process and not to abandon the construction. It would be a strong place to dwell if I did not concern myself with the size of the finished structure but would focus on the hidden parts that make it durable. He never showed me the blueprints. And His words still echo in my mind about the foundation being the most important feature. I'm optimistic about the progress, hopeful that walls are coming on up. I would be thrilled if it were completely closed in and ready for a decorator...now THAT would be some progress. The Holy spirit continues to remind me that slow progress is still progress. When building a structure meant to withstand all kinds of storms and perils, the process has to be precise and methodical.

We are moving my friend. It might take a while and some things may have to undergo some reconstruction. But that is okay. We are going to be better because of it.
