Unshakable Faith!

Easter is a time to re-examine the foundation upon which the Christian faith is based. The understanding of who God is and his character is fundamental to living with Unshakable Faith. Faith that is unshakable is one that knows that God is in control and is all powerful and is always holy....which means he will always do the right thing and never do anything that is not just. Faith in the resurrected Jesus is the foundation that allows anyone to go through life without fear but with a faith that enable them to face whatever comes their way. There are many examples of people throughout history that took their foundation as Jesus and were unshakable. Men and women who understood that if God rules your life, everything else is secondary. Jesus told his followers to "seek first the kingdom of God and all these other things in life would be added to you."(My paraphrase of Matthew 6:33) It seems to me that Jesus is saying that the best foundation in life is to place your trust in Him.....no doubting....just trust. Trust that he knows the best plan for your life and is desiring for you to experience it as you walk with him.
There is much to learn about growing into Unshakable Faith, but we have all been given the invitation to place our trust in Him.
Take a moment now and evaluate your foundation for your life and check to see if it is Unshakable......if it's not on Jesus....it is shaky ground.
Blessings as you walk with the Resurrected Lord,
Pastor Brian
