About building a firm foundation:
Matthew 7:24 "Therefore everyone who
hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who
built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the
winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its
foundation on the rock. 26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does
not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27
The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that
house, and it fell with a great crash." (NIV)
God loves you. These three
words express infinite power. The love of God, flowing down over you and into
your heart, calls you to live your life so everyone will receive from you what
God has given you. God makes the rain and causes the earth to be filled with
life. God holds all of life together and keeps all of life moving. God provides
the force for your breathing. God provides the force to keep your heart beating.
Your mind, heart, and soul come from God's hand. The foundation of your life was
laid down by Christ when Christ gave up His life on the Cross for you. Christ's
singular sacrifice on the Cross changed history and changes hearts the world
over every day. The reason and purpose for your life rests beneath the Cross of
Christ. What you give to Christ rests upon the foundation of His sacrifice. All
you have now, and all you will ever have in the future, depends upon the
foundation of your life. God expects the very best from you. As you stand upon
His foundation, God expects you to make supreme effort to love, care for,
forgive, and have compassion for others. When you make a supreme effort to love,
care for, forgive, and have compassion for others�you not only build a firm
foundation in your own life, you also help others build a firm foundation in
their life.
