open my eyes

"unless the lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain."

psalm 127:1

"truly, truly, i say to you, the son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the father doing. for whatever the father does, that the son does likewise."

john 5:19

i want everything i do to have a purpose--to have a lasting effect on the kingdom. my prayer lately has been that god would open my eyes so i can see what he is doing. i can try to create things on my own. i can try to make ministry happen. i can try to "build the house" ... but it will be in vain. so i want his eyes to see where he is working. i want to join him, not start something and ask him to join me. 

open my eyes...
