Proven Foundation


1st John 1:5-7
This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, 
that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 
If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, 
we lie and do not practice the truth. 
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, 
we have fellowship with one another, 
and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. (ESV)

When you look in the mirror.. Do you like what you see? 
Do you see someone who has failed over and over only to have no hope left in life?
Or
Do you see someone wholly relying on God, striving to please Him, 
and growing closer to Him every day and in every way?

Life will throw many things at us. 
The Devil will try to trip you up and kick you when you fall, 
never letting you forget failures in the past.

If this is you then STOP! There is hope!
Let what you see in the mirror push you to a loving, merciful, and patient God. 
The only one who can grant forgiveness for the sins we commit.
You don't have to go through life regretting the things you have done wrong.
"Walk in the Light" and set your foundation on the Lord.
As we saw in 1st John 1:5-7, God is light. Nothing can be hidden from Him.
If you want to be a good parent, wife, husband, leader, employee, etc. 
then spend time in the Word of God DAILY! 
Those who seek with their whole heart, find.
Those who knock, the door will be opened to them.
Those who ask, will receive.

In God is our foundation built. The building block for our entire life. 
No matter where you go or what you do in life, keep your foundation rooted in Him.

If we as Christians do and practice what we say, our footing will be firm.
We wont be tossed about in a world of sin.
And we will always come back to a mirror that reflects someone with hope.
One who is truly forgiven of sin. Someone who is loved, and accepted.

A true reflection of what the Lord see's..... 
A redeemed Child of God.
