How Firm Is Your Foundation?

Of course, moving off the beach won’t save you from storms. They’ll still come. So once you find safer territory, how you build matters. And strength starts with building a good foundation.

That’s essentially the point of this book. Is your life founded on what matters? Have you placed your roots in a strong sense of identity? Of purpose? Are you connected to your Creator and grounded in reality? The higher you want to rise in life, the deeper and more stable your foundation should be.

God is often referred to as a rock. A rock you can cling to amid the strongest winds. A rock that has never faltered. Solid. Faithful. Firm.

Why not build your life on Him?

“Everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.” —Matthew 7:24–25
