Isaiah 28:16
16Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste. Is a Oak tree, like a great foundation? I would believe that it is, considering the overwhelming size and root system that occurs in them. Today I was watching a group of squirrels run around gathering nuts and what not, even though it's already winter, and by now there should have already been snow, but I digress. Still these squirrels were gathering, running to and fro from nut to nut, and from tree to tree.
Something that I found intriguing as I watched these beautiful, funny looking creatures would take a leap of faith, and would jump from tree to tree, and limb to limb with no hesitation, and no regard of whether the tree would hold them up or not. I opened with the verse from Isaiah stating "a sure foundation" what a wonderful thought, a foundation that is sure means we can depend on that foundation to hold, stand firm, and last, no matter the storms, wind, heat, water, and so on and so on.
Just as those squirrels would jump from limb to limb without hesitation, faithed truly in knowing those tree's would hold them, so should we rely in faith on our God who can uphold us as He stated in Hebrews 1:3 "Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high"
May we always be reminded of the majesty and security of God, and always consider the God of the universe in every decision we make, and every step we take.
