Me: Look at the water just move all around out there.
Prodigal: Yes, I know. Just think Jesus walked on water.
Me: Yes, He did, reminds me that He is a great foundation!
This is from the book Living Faith by Jimmy Carter
We need to have something unshakable, like a mother’s love, something that can’t be destroyed by war, the loss of a loved one, lack of success in business, a serious illness, or failure to realize our ambitions. We need foundation on which we can build a predictable and dependable existence.
Jimmy goes on to talk about the foundation being Jesus. My foundation is being tested right now. Can I lean on people’s approval? Can I lean on my own ability to control? Can I lean on my education? Can I lean on who I am married too? Sometimes God exposes that all we really have during the wind of the storms is Jesus. That can be tough with all our emotions but it is great for our faith.
These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
Genesis 6:9
