The infamous Leaning Tower of Pisa was not originally intended to have “Leaning” as part of its name. It was intended to be known as the tallest structure of its day and a magnificent display of wealth. It is known as neither.
The reason for this regrettable outcome? An unstable foundation.
The soil upon which it is built is highly unstable. The tower began to sink almost immediately after construction began, worsening over its 200 year build.
Over the course of history, many extensive efforts have been made to reinforce the foundation. Most of those attempts resulted in an even greater degree of tilt. More engineering and reconstruction will be necessary every few hundred years to avoid its otherwise inevitable collapse - because nothing can replace a solid foundation.
Luke 6:48 TPT
He is like a man who chooses the right place to build a house and then lays a deep and secure foundation. When the storms and floods rage against that house, it continues to stand strong and unshaken through the tempest, for he built it wisely on the right foundation.
Thank God for our deep and secure foundation!

It is a major undertaking and a remarkable accomplishment for a composer to complete a symphony.
A symphony is traditionally structured to contain several different movements; one movement may be fast and dramatic, while the next may be slow and expressive. However, the final movement of a symphony is always a grand and dramatic finale, bringing everything to a gratifying conclusion.
Our life in this earth is like an unfinished symphony.
There are seasons in our life that are fast and dramatic, while others are slow and mellow. We may appreciate some more than others, but every one a crucial part of our symphony.
The end of a thing is better than its beginning. Eccl 7:8
If we will leave the composition in the hands of its rightful Composer, our life’s symphony is destined for a grand and dramatic finale!
Happy Sunday!

What is gratitude?
For us, as believers, gratitude is more than just a polite "thank you" or a momentary emotion. Gratitude is a spiritual posture that recognizes God’s goodness and faithfulness.
Gratitude requires that we remember God's unfailing goodness toward us and focuses our attention on worshiping Him rather than considering the circumstances.
Gratitude is the antidote to pride - it keeps us in remembrance that all we are and all we have comes from Him. (1 Cor 4:7; Deut 8:10-18)
Gratitude is our entrance into the presence of God. (Ps 100:4)
It is one thing to understand what gratitude is, and even to feel it; but it is most important to express it.
"Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it."
So, whether we choose to express it by shouting, dancing, spinning, hanging from the chandelier, or simply kneeling in His presence, let’s make sure we actually give Him our gift this morning.
See you at church

-Moses walked through the middle of towering waves……and came up dry on the other side.
-Daniel was cast into a den of hungry lions….and he was taken up unharmed.
-Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego were thrown into a burning fiery furnace….and they came out without even the smell of smoke on them.
-Joshua stood facing the insurmountable walls of Jericho…..and he crossed over their rubble as they fell right before his eyes
-Paul and Silas were beaten, chained, and put behind bars……and they were supernaturally released from every restraint.
The common thread in all these situations was faith, obedience, and thanksgiving.
The outcome of our situation is not determined by the size of the obstacle, but how we approach it.
"For I am the LORD, I do not change.” -Malachi 3:6a
God is still doing His part! So if we’re looking at some Jericho walls, we know what we gotta’ do!
See you at church.
