Motivate me Monday

I thought I would try this, in hopes I will think about motivating myself all week.  I pray it works.
"Imagine yourself as a living house.  God comes in to rebuild that house.  At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is doing.  He is getting the drains right ans stopping the leaks in the roof and so on: you know that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised.  But presently He starts knocking the house in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make sense.  What on earth is He up to?  The explanation is that he is building quite a different house than the one you thought of- throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards.  You thought you were going to be made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace."

C.S. Lewis

This is one of my favorites, that I need to remind myself of often.  Hope it helps you out too.  Have a wonderful motivated Monday!
