Psalm 127:1-2 (NIVUK)
1 Unless the Lord builds the house,
the builders labour in vain.
Unless the Lord watches over the city,
the guards stand watch in vain.
2 In vain you rise early
and stay up late,
toiling for food to eat –
for he grants sleep to those he loves.
This week our Bible notes are a response to the church redevelopment project we’re considering. Psalm 127 is a simple reminder, one that is good to hear from time to time, that it is God that makes our work fruitful – if this plan is of God, it will be fruitful.
Heavenly Father, we want to make the most of our life for you. Is this plan yours? If it is, give us the courage to embrace it, if not, to lay it to one side.
