Meet Jesus - Day 20 of 40 - Foundation

Read Luke 6:46-49


[Jesus said] "I will show you what it’s like when someone comes to me, listens to my teaching, and then follows it. It is like a person building a house who digs deep and lays the foundation on solid rock." (Luke 6:47-48a NLT)

Jesus is that sure, steady ground. It is on Him and His Word we find stability and peace no matter what is swirling around us. 

"When the floodwaters rise and break against that house, it stands firm because it is well built." (Luke 6:48b NLT)

What do those who not follow Jesus attempt to stand on? What do they count on for safety? How have those attempts been tested successfully and proved long lasting?



Or is this what they find? 

"But anyone who hears and doesn’t obey is like a person who builds a house without a foundation. When the floods sweep down against that house, it will collapse into a heap of ruins.” (Luke 6:49 NLT)

How may you introduce Jesus: Foundation to those in need of an actual firm ground to stand on? You may start with sharing how Jesus has been your foundation.
