Foundations

Foundations
What are you building your foundation on, Solid Rock, or quicksand? A foundation built on solid rock has staying power, withstanding the test of time. Contrarily, a foundation built on quicksand is never steady. It does not matter how quickly you build upon it or how much you build: Every piece of your foundation gets devoured by the quicksand, and rather quickly at that. Some will spend a lifetime in blood, sweat and tears building a foundation on quicksand. They go on, either not realizing, or refusing to acknowledging that they are building on something that was never meant to be built upon from the very beginning. Therefore again I say, What are you building your foundation on, Solid Rock, or quicksand?
