Let God Build Your House

Except the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it; except the Lord keeps the city, the watchman wakes but in vain. It is vain for you to rise up early, to take rest late, to eat the bread of [anxious] toil--for He gives [blessings] to His beloved in sleep. -- Psalm 127:1-2
As a responsible adult who works hard at doing things right and trying to build a good life for yourself and your family, you may sometimes forget God is the Master Builder.
It is right for you to work and provide the material things you need in life, but only God can build you into all that you should be. This can only happen as you fully yield yourself to Him and allow Him to do the work.
Only the Spirit can cause you to grow into the perfection of Christ . . . He has started a good work in you and He will also finish it, so cooperate with the Master Builder and enjoy the blessings of the beloved . . . even as you sleep.
