Fantastic Friday #376- Demolish

Demolish

For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:3-5

Legos are a wonderful invention and toy, and best of all they help build minds.  These toys help you dream big and make you really think about how to construct something.  The wonderful thing about Legos is that you can build something tall and high and wonderful and if you don't like it you can demolish it and start all over again.  I am finding a good correlation between Legos and the walls people put up so they don't have to pay attention to God or His messengers who bring the Gospel. A lot of times these people are so entrenched in their non-belief in God they build high walls around themselves and nothing people say can really make a dent in these walls.  The thing is, the walls that these people put up are really like Legos and something of their own creation.  If God wants to make His Gospel known through people and to people, He is going to demolish that wall that is built.  Once that person opens their ears to what God has to say, then God will rebuild that person into a wonderful creation that cannot be demolished.   So, the next time you think about playing with Legos, think about how God created you, and then once your wall came down and you accepted Him, He built you up into something wonderful and He is still building.

Have a great weekend.
