Jesus—The Master Builder

“Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.” (John 14:1-3)

The Savior has been gone for two thousand years, and has not yet returned to this earth to receive His people to Himself.  So what is the plan for His people on earth between His going and coming?

He is still focused on the plan He had over 2,000 years ago when he said, “…I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.” (Matthew 16:18b)  The head of the body is building His church during this time.  The process of establishing local churches in cross-cultural environments is difficult at best, but not impossible because Jesus is the Master church builder.

Everyone has the privilege and responsibility of serving the head of the church, and participating in His plan as we wait for His return.  Each of us has spiritual gifts and natural talents God has given to us.   Jesus, the church builder, uses all kinds of people and talents as special tools to build the church around the world.

Please pray that we will keep focused on His plan for this church age.  Work willingly as His tool.  Wait patiently for His return.
