BUILDING

A great and wise man once called one of his workmen to him saying, "Go into the far country and build for me a house.  The decision of planning and of actual construction will be yours, but remember, I shall come to accept your work for a very special friend of mine."

And so the workman departed with a light heart for his field of labor.  Materials of all kinds were plentiful here, but the workman had a mind of his own.  "Surely," he thought, "I know my business.  I can use a bit of inferior materials here and cheat on my workmanship a little there, and still make the finished work look good.  Only I will know that what I have built has weaknesses."

And so, at last the work was completed and the workman reported back to the great and wise man.  "Very good," he said.  "Now remember that I wanted you to use only the finest materials and craftsmanship in this house because I wanted to make a present of it?  My friend, you are the one I had you build it for.  It is all yours."

How much like man.  He comes to earth a stranger.  He has his free agency. He may build as he likes.  But on the morning of his resurrection, he will receive what he has built for an eternal home and habitation.
