A Living House

Beholding You beauty is all that I long for,
to worship You Jesus is my sole desire,
for this very heart You have shaped for Your pleasure,
purposed to lift Your name higher.

I am Your servant
come to bring You glory,
as is fit for the work of Your hands.

Now unto the Lamb who sits on the throne,
be glory and honor and praise.

There is not one thing in this world that is better than our Father in Heaven.

"Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on; you knew that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make any sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of - throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were being made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace. He intends to come and live in it Himself."
— C.S. Lewis (Mere Christianity)
