No Noise

Every stone was prepared by the workmen, ready to be put in its allotted place when brought to the Lord's house.
We come to Christ, who is the foundation, and are joined with Him in this wonderful spiritual house.
In one sense we are the house, and in another sense we minister in the house. "A holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices." What precious words to apply practically to our hearts, contemplating the Lord's overflowing mercy, grace and loving-kindness! He has brought us to Himself. He has built us on Himself as living stones, with the same material, spiritually, as the foundation itself. We have a life hid in Christ with God, and we have a holy priesthood and are to offer up spiritual sacrifices. This alone is acceptable to God, because it is presented in that same name He delights in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. May the Lord enable us to know how to take our places as living stones on this glorious foundation, to know what it is, as holy priests, to worship God in spirit and in truth, as He desires that His saints should worship Him.
