By the grace God has given me, I laid a foundation as an expert builder, and someone else is building on it. But each one should be careful how he builds. For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. (1 Corinthians 3:10,11 NIV)
Forward Friday!
Moving from days momma said we’d have to joy unspeakable, full of glory. We have days like momma said- it’s called life. How we function in life depends on foundation we set. When storms of life threaten, how well do we stand?
Understanding
Satan’s easiest trick is to make one believe the Bible is hard to understand. In church all my young life, I did not become serious reading my Bible till after college. I became determined, can remember vividly. I asked Jesus to help me understand, He did. I was amazed how many childhood Bible stories came from Genesis. Connection made to strengthen my foundation.
Foundation
Foundation in Jesus Christ, is the stability to withstand life situations. Never in my young life, think my mother would die of ALS when I was 17. Foundation at that time was shaken. As we become a Christian, frame work is formed. As we grow in maturity, cement thickens. God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Satan is here to steal, kill, and destroy. Attempts succeed with weak foundations.
Experiences
Experiences prove Jesus is faithful. Many will agree in God’s faithfulness. For those who have trouble with these thoughts, I ask you to trust. Open your Bible and ask Jesus to help you understand. Begin with Genesis 1. You’ll be amazed. More Biblical knowledge gained, stronger cement is solidified.
Evaluate
Let’s move forward evaluating our foundations. Help others struggling build a foundation in Jesus Christ. God is faithful. All of us working together- brings unity to God’s kingdom and produces joy unspeakable, full of glory.
Be encouraged!
