What is the stability of those who are having such character established in their life?
David encouraged:
“. . .He who does these things shall never be moved.” (Psalm 15:5c ESV)
There are some who think they are standing on “stable ground” when in reality (if they would take a close look around and even take a sniff) will find they are more on something like the “stable grounds”. All things aside from that which Paul found in Christ had become as “dung” to him. (note Philippians 3:7-9) Where have we sought to be established?
Standing with God and for what He has decreed — that is the realm of stability. It is through the development of such character as He desires to instill within us that will contribute to security in life. It is here that we will find stable ground on which to stand. By hearing the message of God and acting upon it, we reveal that our life is being established and built on a rock. (note Matthew 7:24-27)
May we remain open to God’s work of image renewal. Let us allow Him to establish the godly character our world needs to see modeled. And then, may those around us be able to see the stability God is able to bring to our life!
Have a great day STANDING UNSHAKEABLE WITH GOD!
