Laying the FOUNDATIONS.

Hi there Friends.. Family.. and Anyone else who will be reading this. I decided that it was time for me to set up a blogspot as I want to be able to keep in touch with people and not always have to send out long emails... hehe. I did have a blogspot in 2005 but i no longer have that so this is brand new one just for you .

I will be trying to add thoughts, updates on my life etc regularly... so keep your eyes open .. and keen checking my blog to find out whats happening.

I hope you are well.. and you are remembering how much GOd loves you, desires you, and is FOR YOU. I'm trying to do the same.... it can be challenging to stay in the TRUTH... but its a battle thats worth fighting.

I read a newspaper article.. well glanced at the paper yesterday... it said ""laying the foundations"... "Lasting Relationships".... This really stuck out to me as I guess i'm kind of going through some things where i feel Like foundations are being built. I started to ponder this and I realised that when foundations are built its hard work. Often alot of digging requried, and its kind of the ugly part of the job.. BUT... without foundations and REALLY good ones whatever is being built WILL NOT STAND when the rough weather comes. I guess in life we are in the process of waiting for the eternal home- heaven..
As we go through life we so need to have the foundation of the TRUTH of Jesus Christ as our foundation... or we will NOT ever get to our eternal home. Even in practical life things we if we do not build friendships on good foundations then they will crumble, if we dont have a good foundations in terms of morals etc we can end up hurting ourselves...and others.

I'm sharing this with you as its what Im being challenged about at the moment. I am going through A PROCESS of taking a look deep inside myself to see what the foundations of my life are... and YES it hurts... YES there are tears... but... YES as I read the word of God and I know that this PROCESS is soooooo worth it.

If we want the END RESULT... of beauty, the glory of the Lord, Gods purpose for our lives.... Our home in heaven... then i guess its time to make sure the foundations are SOLID. I know the times we are living in are difficuilt, following Jesus is difficuilt... the things of the world are around us trying to sway us.

Lets NOT grow weary in doing good... lets keep our feet firmly planted on Jesus. I pray that by reading this blog you may be challenged... encouraged.... spurred on to make sure the foundation you are building on is JESUS... is strong... so that you can stand the test of time... so you can see your eternal HOME.


Well..... I didnt know i was going to share all that.... but i did...hehe
be Blessed today..
Lots of love to you.....
