There has been and is a lot of road work in our area. It is interesting to me, to see how the different foundations are being prepared. Without a solid foundation, the new road would soon crumble under normal usage. Our roads see much more than normal usage with sand pits located all around our area.
Our lives have a lot of similarities to roads. Without a firm foundation, we will have problems that can cause damage or even destroy us.
Isaiah 28:16 (NIV)
16 So this is what the Sovereign LORD says: "See, I lay a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone for a sure foundation; the one who trusts will never be dismayed.
