“UNDER CONSTRUCTION!”
Philippians 3:12
“Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me.”

Sometimes spiritual leaders give the impression that they are so holy, that they dine with the angels.  The truth of the matter is that the closest we get to becoming angelic is that we just enjoy angel food cake.   

We need times of humiliation to remind us that we are still under construction.  I think it is safe to say that we will always be under construction.  The danger is when we feel like the job is completed and stop the building process.  A building that is not under construction is a building that is starting to decay. 

I heard an evangelist years ago, tell of a woman after a service who spoke very kindly to him and tell him he was so mature.  He rushed home and looked up the word mature so he would be better able to enjoy all of its meaning.  To his dismay, the definition said; "ripe and getting rotten."  That is what happens when we stop the building process. 

Never stop the construction process.  We should never know the meaning of retirement when it comes to doing the work of the Lord.  We may be free from the job that we have held throughout our life, but, when it comes to doing the work of the Lord it is "always UNDER CONSTRUCTION.  GOD IS NOT FINISHED WITH US YET!"

Blessings dear hearts!  Walk with God today and be a blessing!

It seemed that every time she gave her testimony she looked and sounded like she had just been baptized in lemon juice! It became a joke for the kids in the church. We kids who were eight or nine years of age would make faces and imitate this lady. I am sure her heart was pure and her devotion to the Lord was pure, but her face lacked the appearance of joy. At times we Christians seem to have a short circuit when it comes to having the joy of our salvation. We talk of t
