BEING SOLID IN OUR FAITH
It is a tough thing
To BUILD a solid life=
It is a tough thing
To rebuild or REMODEL our lives=
It takes a WHOLE LOT OF FAITH
It takes BEING SOLID
In our FAITH
“The rain fell=the floods came
And the winds blew-
And buffeted the house=
But it did not collapse-
It had been set
SOLIDLY ON ROCK” Matthew 7:25
When we build our LIVES=
It is ESSENTIAL
That we focus
On the FOUNDATION
We have to WITHSTAND
Seasons of bad weather
In our lives
Storms come=it may COME in
The form of a diagnosis=
A divorce=a betrayal=a LOSS
Of a loved one=grief
Or even financial strain
From a global pandemic=or
It may come in the form
Of loneliness or depression
We need to BUILD SOLID=
We need to keep moving forward
In our FAITH
BUILDING ON A SOLID FOUNDATION!
“So this is what
The Sovereign Lord says=
'See I lay a stone
In Zion-a tested zone
A precious cornerstone
For a SURE FOUNDATION
The one who relies on it
Will never be stricken
With panic'” Isaiah 28:16
“For no one can lay
ANY FOUNDATION=
Other than the one already laid
Which is Jesus Christ” 1 Corinthians 3:11
Believing in God
Believing in Jesus=
IF our FOUNDATION is solid=
Our foundation secure
We will ENDURE
We may need some repairs
Along the way=
We may need to
Make some ADJUSTMENTS
But if we have BUILT
In solid faith=
What lies beneath us
Can support and PROTECT US
No matter what comes
“Nevertheless=GOD'S SOLID FOUNDATION
Stands firm-
Sealed with this inscription=
'The Lord know those
Who are his'=and
'Everyone who confesses
The name of the Lord-
Must turn away from wickedness'” 2 Timothy:2:19
Building a life
In this world
Is a BIG INVESTMENT
We need to BUILD
A life on God and Jesus
And ROCK solid people
We need to build
Our lives on rock=
And that ROCK IS OUR FAITH
In Jesus' name=and in the name of our ROCK SOLID LIVING FATHER!
