“If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?” (Psalm 11:3).
I believe even the righteous at times can “come to” and discover part of his foundation wasn’t what it should have been and has been destroyed.
A good life on a poor foundation is actually no good at all.
The solution isn’t to build poorly.
The solution is to rebuild on a good foundation. The good foundation, that is.
I find myself musing: “Is any part of my life right now on a foundation other than Jesus?”
It is too easy and natural for me to do good and live right in order to please myself. Doing something for recognition and praise is part of pleasing myself. And that’s only one part!
I wonder what kind of rebuilding I may need to do.
