Ch. 315 - Be a Sanctuary

'Lord, prepare me to be a sanctuary,
pure and holy, tried and true.
With thanksgiving, I'll be a living
Sanctuary for You.'

A sanctuary is something set apart by God for God. It is a place where God dwells.

Being a sanctuary includes the absence of profanity and defilement.
Being a sanctuary includes the acceptance of responsibility to be a standard of value.
Being a sanctuary includes giving help to those in need.

Be humbled that God has chosen you to be a sanctuary for Him.
Be open to His searching and cleansing of your heart.

Let His Spirit lead you.


'For this is what the high and lofty One says - he who lives forever, whose name is holy: "I live in a high and holy place, but also with him who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite." '
[Isaiah 57:15]
