Solid Rock

Rock is a naturally occurring, solid aggregate of minerals.  In plain terms, it is a sum total a particular minerals.  Pulled together, minerals form something difficult to break. What would be the 'solid rock' in your life?  What or who is the foundation in your life?  Better yet, who or what is the cornerstone that you've built your life upon? Did you know that a cornerstone is the first stone set in the construction of a foundation and is important because all other stones are set in reference to it and the cornerstone determines the position of the entire structure.

The bible says in 1 Peter 2:4-7, "Come to Jesus Christ. He is the living stone people have rejected, but which God has chosen and highly honored.  And now you are living stones being used to build a spiritual house.  You are also a group of holy priests, and with the help of Jesus Christ you will offer sacrifices that please God.  It is just as God says in the Scriptures, 'Look! I am placing in Zion a choice and precious cornerstone.  No one who has faith in this one will be disappointed."

In life, surrounding yourself with smooth and polished living stones to help you stay grounded is wonderful!  But, when you want to build on your support system, think about starting with Jesus, the True Cornerstone! 

When you start with Jesus as your foundation, He helps you discern between the rocks and sand, the smoothed stones and the pebbles. With Jesus as your Cornerstone, you have a firm foundation in assisting you in developing a solid rock support system.

Blessings!
