God's Building

From my life's beginning
God had a perfect plan,
My life designed in blueprint
Before this world began.

His foundation is of rock
Where building will begin,
My life grounded firm in Christ
Delivers me from sin.

His walls plumbed straight and true
Like pillars stand erect,
My life supported by the Lord
From evil will protect.

His roof is placed secure
With no leaks from a flood,
My life redeemed through Jesus
Is covered by His blood.

On earth God keeps building
My life through truth and prayer,
Until I grace in Heaven
My mansion He's built there.

Bob; Wonderful! The analogy is scripturally sound and so full of inspiration. Great job!
thank you, ellie

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

Oh Bob, What a beautiful plan it is!!!  Took me a long time to realize there was a blue print, but when I did, how things turned around.

My life through truth and prayer,
Until I grace in Heaven
My mansion He's built there."

So very beautiful.  Bonnie
