Build Your House on Solid Rock

from A Gem to Remember · host Julia Christine

Matthew 7:24-27. Life is fast-paced... full of things to do, people to see, and places to go. Even the good things in life can start to become overwhelming. Then out of nowhere, there is loss, sickness, failure, and pain. When everything is stripped away, what are you left with? What makes you say, "If all else fails, if I don't have anything else, at least I have this"? We have to pause and ask ourselves what our foundation is. We have to consider what we've built ourselves on: rock or sand? No title, relationship, test, or accomplishment was made to hold you. Those things are merely sand, made to wash away and come out from under you. Jesus is our own true foundation. Solid. Lasting. Unwavering. If all else fails, crumbles, is destroyed, taken away, ruined...He will remain.
