God's Still Working on You

Amos 9:11 (New International Version)
"In that day I will restore David's fallen tent. I will repair its broken places, restore its ruins, and build it as it used to be"

In the process of working through grief, many broken pieces may be found. It might mean relationships have been severed, your heart is "broken", or your finances are in ruins. But, God is faithful to take those broken pieces, build you back up, and in many ways, make you stronger than before. When a building is restored, it is taken back to its original design as much as possible. Often times, new pieces are added that resemble the old. But with it being "new", there is more strength. The floors, walls, etc. have not yet "weathered" with time. So, with your own personal life, allow some "newness" to come in; allow that restoration to take place. Build a strong foundation on which to stand.

2 Samuel 22:21 (The Message)
"God made my life complete when I placed all the pieces before him"
