Where my eyes see ashes, You see new growth. Where my eyes see death, You see resurrection. Where I see pain and sickness, You see opportunity for healing and creating new and restored relationships, for those who are crushed have the greatest chance to experience Your reconstructive power. Blessed is he who is the project of Your hands because Your building can weather any storm.
Father, be the architect of my life. Follow your blueprint to every minute detail. Tear down the walls I have built which serve to protect myself against others, but which also block the flow of Your steadfast mercy and love. Remove the weak stones from my foundation. Strip away the layers of plaster and paint which I have applied in an effort to conceal my flaws and shortcomings, and replace them with the Fruit of Your Spirit. Rebuild my walls with the strength of Your Word that I might stand in times of adversity, and restore my crumbling foundation with the mortar of Your Truth. May the first Rock lain in that foundation be that which is called Christ.
In Jesus Name, Amen
