BEING SOLID IN OUR FAITH

 







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!
