CASTOR REVIEW Meditorial by Rev. James Paul On my recent vacation in England, I encountered a sermon etched in stone. In the famous naval port of Plymouth, there stands against the sea an eighteenth century lighthouse. It's antiquated gas lamp and mirrors have long been extinguis- hed; however, it now gives guidance to men on the sea of life. Chiselled with care on the inside of the lighthouse this verse from Psalm 127:1 is found, 'Except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it". Think for a moment on the impact of this verse. Can it be true, as the Bible states, that all man's labors to build a house (i.e. life, marriage, family) are futile, unless God is doing the building? Yes it is true, for the Lord of the Universe is not advocating phy- sical inactivity, but rather, spiritual dependence. If you want to build your house aright, allow Him to be the Master Architect. Be sure to read and obey His blueprint - the Bible. With every passing day, apply the mortar of His love to your marriage and family. Finally, invite the Master Architect - the Lord Jesus - to rule on the throne of your life, so that all your building will be directed by Him.
