What’s your testimony? Are you stable and you are sure that your feet are planted on solid ground? Stability is one of man’s greatest obstacles. Stability comes when you live by God’s will (plan) and you set goals that are reachable. You will not reach your goals when you are unstable. Instability breeds DOUBT and ANXIETY. Somewhere in between doubt and anxiety there are mood swings and the need to be in control. When you worry about things that you have no control over, you become frustrated and then you have no insight. Everyone would like to know how their LIFE is going to be in the future. Since we cannot see into the future we must trust God. Life is demanding! Getting an education, getting a good job and having a lot of money is not the answer. Sometimes we have all of these things and we are still unhappy. All of the money, silver and gold in the world cannot save your soul. When you put your trust in money and your possessions they will let you down. Faith and love will bring STABILITY into your life. Faith must replace doubt and anxiety. By faith you learn to trust God for the things that seem impossible. As we learn to love and learn how to forgive, then we can see some stability. We must build our lives on our faith in Jesus Christ. WHY CHRIST? Christ is the SOLID ROCK, there is no greater foundation to build on. Life is empty without Christ the Lord, because there is no connection to God. Christ makes it very clear that we must trust God. In the bible (KJV), St. Luke 12:22-23, “And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. The life is more than meat and the body is more than raiment.” Then Christ explains how God takes care of the birds that they may eat and how the lilies grow without your help. Verses 28-29, “If God so clothe the grass, which is today in the field, and tomorrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith? And seek not what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of a doubtful mind.” We must at all cost remove all doubt about God and His abilities to take of us. God has made a way for everyone to be saved from the wrath to come. Let the world, go, and be born again and receive the seed of God (the gift of God) and you will become a new creature in Christ…
