It's not about me!

On pages 84-85 of Paul David Tripp's book "Broken Down House," he speaks of the skilled builder that we can trust in as we live in the broken down house of our world. He concludes this section by saying,

"You are never in a better place than when you give up on you and begin to trust what is sure: the life-shaping wisdom of the One who built the house in the first place."

I am at a place where I need to continue to remember this. I can't fix the mess of this "house." But God is redeeming it and I can trust in what He is doing.

What a wonderful, freeing truth.
