Solid Foundation
It’s just plain ol’ common sense: if someone begins to construct a building that will stand firm and last a long time, they should always begin with a solid foundation. If you don’t have a solid, strong foundation, whatever you construct on that foundation will fall apart and collapse. God is engaged in the lifelong processContinue reading “Solid Foundation”
