My Devotional Journal: Today’s Our Daily Bread  Author -  Sheridan Voysey … AT THIS LINK   … the ODB author related that the foundation of her house needed serious renovation trying to avoid cracks in the wall which were appearing to reveal that the foundation of the home had not been built solidly in the first place. 

And if my readers have taken the time to digest the linked song and meditated seriously on the Scriptures provided above, it is clear how God’s word (again see photo) from Solomon, Isaiah in the OT and the Apostles, Paul and Peter, and no less than Jesus, Himself, point believers in Jesus as The Christ to be our firm foundation for life  The question for us today is .. ARE WE really building our lives of God blueprint … i.e., HIS WORD?! I sure am trying to do that; … how about you?           

My Thanksgiving … Oh, King Jesus, thank You , Lord, … once again … for for being the “Cornerstone” of my life.       

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I pray. again today, that all reading here will join me, … to use Your word, Lord, as the blueprint and foundation for our lives.   … Amen
