A Christian Under Construction
Feeling like the three little pigs
Who were threatened by the big bad wolf,
Who came to blow their houses down
And a little hot wind is all it took.
Thinking my foundation was secure
I had nothing to worry about,
Until the termites invaded my wood
And started to eat me, from the inside out.
The internal pressure started to take it’s toll;
I started to lean and I became weak,
My foundation begin to shift,
And my roof started to leak.
The wear and tear was now visible to the naked eye;
My structure started to bend.
The short cuts and cheap wood I used
Were now causing me to cave in.
I went back and read the Great Architect’s manual,
Following all of the instructions without hesitation;
With knowledge and wisdom I was restored,
Now standing firm, on a solid foundation.

About the Book
There are consequences for all the choices we make. The one thing we must realize, is that the choices we make not only effect us, but also those that love us dearly. Some wrong choices have caused many to lose their lives and caused many families to fall apart. The truth is, we have all made some bad decisions and had to suffer the consequences.We have to be very careful about trying to condemn others and start praying for them, as well as ourselves.
Before I came into an intimate relationship with God, I believed I wasn't clean or good enough to be used for His kingdom building. I would often find myself telling God that when I stopped doing the things that weren't pleasing to Him, then I would come to Him. When I started to study His word and spend time with Him for myself, I realized He is the cleaning solution and a God of so many chances. He's a forgiving and merciful God.
When you find yourself in the wilderness, when the world has written you off, when you are tired of doing things the same old way, and getting the same old results, God is there. He's knocking at your door, waiting for you to let Him in. No matter what your condition is, there is nothing too hard for God to handle. Whether you're locked up physically or mentally, never give up. What looks like the end to you, could be the very beginning of something awesome with God. Although you were convicted of the crime, true repentance can bring about a change.Each day you open your eyes is another opportunity to get right with God.
As you read this book, I pray that if you are found guilty of doing things contrary to the word of God, this day you will make the right choice!
