God’s Foundation for the Unstable: Christmas 2018

Been witnessing too much.
People living more for this life than the next one.
God is not a genie or icing to a cake.
He should be the reason in every decision you make.
Thinking can one truly love, without losing it?
But holding my composure ‘cause without it would you listen?
Or maybe to avoid the day I feel that you shouldn’t… Even though you should.

— unedited (original poem) “Suffering Servant”‭‭ • Luke‬ ‭17:33‬ ‭

. . . . .

Ever feel unstable?

Sometimes the fall is caused by you – from all the wrong decisions, but sometimes it’s life shifting your world around too much. Sometimes you fall into a place where only God can save you. KNOW that there IS power in the name of Jesus! But always make your foundation Jesus!

— God is stable ground!
Unwavering, unchanging and sure.


Christ can be more intimately known than religion. • His love is divine, and a love beyond teachings or tradition.
— Though He gives great guidance like a father, and is most faithful, ultimateley He’s the savior of our broken world. He’s our fix, our light, our God of love!

— Only God knows how to best take care of us. Only where He is, is there eternal stability. • Can we stand, if asked if we’re holy/pure? Only where Christ is are we grounded and secure.

Matthew 7:24-27 “Anyone who listens to my [Jesus] teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock. But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.”

Glad to have reaffrimation from God to share this because I almost didn’t… But I’m sure now that God’s up to stuff and calling people home this season! What a better time to build on Him! ❄️ A post reminded me that Luke has 24 chapters, so that’s scripture you can unfold daily, until Christmas! There’s your start!

God will come to life as you read His word and seek Him in prayer, as He tells about Himself in it, and directs our hearts in salvation as He answers us!

In this piece I aimed to capture a mood I’m grateful to be without. Shared in my last post that I came to a great uncertainty, but I literally marveled during that time about my comfort despite it. When everything in your life is founded on God knowing Him becomes your peace. Whatever I lacked didn’t compare in light of what I have and know- with God it’s all well. Cues: Joy to World 🎊🌟🎶 badadadumm! (Love that this song can both bless me and be so funny to me- so many speed up versions 🤣) Take care everyone! • Be dazzled by the lights going up out here, but mostly the Light of the world! 🙏🏾🙌🏾 WAKE. HOPE. FOLLOW. NEW BEGINNINGS.
