WHY RENOVATE?

The Bible advises us to build our lives on a solid foundation, not on sand. As I’ve grown more and more tired – to the point of perpetually feeling exhausted and showing symptoms of depression – I’ve had to ask myself “Why?” How did I get to this point? As I’ve asked the Lord to show me, He’s revealed to me that my foundations are on shifting sands. I have based my life such things as performance and perfection. I have been invisibly motivated by fear. The lies I’ve been building my life upon need to be replaced by His truth. And the only way to re-build properly is to remove the old faulty foundations so that the new can be fixed in place. This is God’s grace on my life and although it’s a messy and uncomfortable process, I am grateful that He cares so much that He would build my life well.
