Cooperating with God
We must put our hope in God‘s promise to build our house: to fulfill the vision He has put in our hearts to bear lasting fruit, make an impact, and step into the fullness of who He created us to be. The psalmist does not imply that there is no labor involved for us but that we are not to be in the lead position in this building project. God is the architect, the financial backer, the owner, the foreman, the building crew, and pretty much everything else. Our part is to cooperate with God as He builds us and our vision.

About this Plan
As Christians seek out their God-given purpose, it is natural to expect God to develop the skills and abilities given to believers that would allow them to go into the world and make an impact for the Kingdom. However, the focus is often spent on the vision God gave his Church rather than realizing God's main desire is to develop His children. If Christians want to change the world and "bear fruit" that makes an impact on the world, they must first make roots that last. Using the life of David, Liebscher gives readers three areas to dig in to start building those lasting roots--prayer, service, and community.
