deep foundations


This lookout structure on the beach
 needs strong support
 to withstand the constant pounding of the surf
 against its foundation.

We Christians need constant support as well.
Every day we are buffeted by the evil world system
which rails against all that is of God.
Just listen to the news for a few minutes
and you will know what I mean.
We need a foundation that goes deep to get us through,
to keep us believing and trusting in God.

That is why we have the Bible.
The Bible has everything we need
to stand firm against the constant pounding,
the lies and deception,
the doubt,
the depression,
that the evil one is always whispering into our heart.

"God's word is.....
perfect,
restoring the soul;
sure,
making wise the simple.

God's word is.....
right,
rejoicing the heart;
pure,
enlightening the eyes.

God's word is.....
clean,
enduring forever;
true,
righteous altogether.

God's word is....
more desirable than gold,
yes,
than much fine gold.

Sweeter also than honey,
 and the drippings of the honeycomb.

Moreover......
by God's word we are warned;
in keeping them (His word)
there is great reward."
Psalm 19: 7~11

What are you waiting for?
Pick up your Bible,
read it,
love it,
obey it!
Make sure, dear Christians,
make sure your foundation is deep in His word.
