No matter who you are nor how long you may live, when you start trying to reconstruct and rebuild something spiritual in your life you will be forced to face with the struggle. Sometimes when you look to this world around us, you may even echo the question of Sanballat:  Will a revival come from a trash pile? Will there be reconstruction from the rubbish? Can riches come from the refuse?

When we look at the trash pile of what used to be a wall and a Temple in Jerusalem, something within shrinks back and asks, “How in this world can anything constructive come out of this thing?” But within that element of mayhem and destruction there were some clear principles and laws that governed it.  Refuse must have its fixed rules and the slag-heap will have certain statutes. Maybe you feel like the heat and stress from pressing circumstances are pressing you and bending you out of shape. But God is bigger than all of that, and there is a place with God that you can recover. A rubbish heap is God’s raw material.  A revival is His finished product.
