I know that as I go through life, changes will be made. I understand that I will change from day-to-day. I see the changes that are going on in my life, and I feel the changes taking place. While changes are being made, something has to remain constant; remain a foundation; remain a cornerstone. Today at church, I thought that while I'm changing for the better, am I making those changes my foundation? Have I completely and utterly destroyed who I was to become a better me? I know that God has given my the ability to destroy who I was, He is making things happen that I didn't feel like I had strength to do alone. I understand what it takes to destroy yourself and become a new. Am I implementing it is the question. To know something, to understand something, doesn't mean that you are implementing it. So how do I implement the changes that I see into being my foundation?
God will destroy every room in my "house", He will take out the concrete floor of my basement and pour one anew. This new foundation should be completely different than what I was, completely! I was distrusting, manipulative, controlling, judgmental, and a hypocrite. I should be trusting, accepting, upfront, honest, and give up control to God. I should forever and always put God first. I should go before Him in a path that He has laid out in front of me. He doesn't hide the path that He wants you to go on, so why do we always search for it? It's right there in front of me!!! I must change my actions to reflect a new foundation. A foundation who's cornerstone is God; a foundation built around God. Until I gain that critical foundation, I will not understand the lessons that He has set in front of my eyes. He is changing me, I just need to accept that as my foundation instead of running away from that which scares me. Instead of running, instead of giving in, I need to stand firm.
