Cornerstone-The Only Stone
June 11, 2013 Leave a comment
“Jesus is ‘the stone that you builders thought was not important. But this stone has become the cornerstone.’ Psalm 118:22 Jesus is the only one who can save people. His name is the only power in the world that has been given to save anyone. We must be saved through him!”” Acts 4:11, 12 ERV
When we build something, they always remind us that we must have a solid foundation or else the structure will crumble.
I wish I have known this truth long time ago and I would not have wasted a lot of effort and time on something else.
When I was a child, I remember a booklet given to me about Christianity. In it was a picture of 2 chairs, one chair – the word “you” was sitting on it and the other chair, a “cross”. I never understand the true meaning of the symbolism until I began my journey of faith.
It means that Christ has to sit in my chair. It means that everything I do must be Christ centered. It means that my beliefs has to revolve around the teaching of Christ . It means that my other business in life must also be connected to Christian principles. It means that when I make a decision, I have to consult Him. It means that when I face adversities, I must refer to His promises. It means that when people persecute me, I must remember that He also went through the same predicament. It means that my mind will always have a online connection to Him.
These sounds like an impossible task to take on. “I have to do all that?” you may ask.
The truth is, No. Once you have connected your life to Christ, the reprogramming starts and the transformation will change your heart daily as you walk in your own journey. The change is gradual and fulfilling.
Jesus, the Cornerstone. Our Cornerstone.
