Haggai 1:8
‘Go up … and build the house; and I will take pleasure in it, and I will be glorified, says the LORD.’

Oftentimes life calls for action and deliberate steps.
We cannot always be passive and just wait for things to fall into our laps.
We need to step forward, under God’s direction, and do what honours Him.
We can be a part of something bigger than ourselves when we do what pleases God.

Let's Pray...
Lord, I ask that You would give me the courage and the strength to step forward and begin to build. I choose to do what honours and pleases You. Show me the way I should go so that You can be glorified.

Amen.
