Foundations matter # 1
January 19, 2021
A tilting block of flats raised concerns. Rightly so. If your apartment was leaning, you’d be concerned. Research confirmed that falsified data on the foundation piles meant inferior, unstable products were used. Collapse was certain in time.
With our Christian beliefs being challenged in our culture, and 2021 promises to continue that erosion, our foundation must be secure. Jesus parable in Matthew 7: 25–27 illustrates that a house built on sand will fall in the rain. A house built on a rock will stand firm.
Our rock is Jesus, his words, his life. There is no substitute for our personal reading of his book, our personal prayer and communication with him. We need not fear any storm this year. Our secure rock for 2021 is Jesus.
