Gospel Reflections #569: Jesus is our sure Foundation

1 Corinthians 3:11 "No one can lay another foundation without the foundation that is already laid, which is Jesus Christ."

God has not only carried out His plan of salvation for us who are bound by the effects of sin, but He has also given us sinners new life and provided the foundation on which that life can grow.

But those who do not know God do not know that Jesus has freed us from the chains of sin, nor that God has prepared a new life and foundation for us, and they live their lives groping and struggling in the darkness.

But through God's guidance, we are given the opportunity to know Him and to encounter Him.

And even if we stay on God's foundation, if we continue to feel no change, we are tempted to look for another foundation.

Nevertheless, God does not give up on us, but invites us to follow His path.

And when we truly encounter God and know Him, we will see how wonderful the foundation of Jesus Christ is.

The foundation of Jesus will not run away or disappear.

God is working on us in every way until we willingly choose it.

Therefore, we can take our time, commune with God, and make our choice.

When we do, we will be on God's foundation, and we will be filled with gratitude and joy to know that we are surrounded by God's love!
