A new foundation

An older home, slated for being demolished. It was unkempt, uncared for and the foundation below it crumbling. What the world deemed broken and in disrepair, one man saw potential. So, he purchased the old home and did something unexpected. The man moved the house to a new location, with a better foundation. From there, he cleaned it up and fixed what was broken. Now that once broken down and desolate home, was now a home of beauty; both cared for and sitting upon a strong foundation. As sinners, we were destined for eternal death. Although God and His love and great care for us, sent His Son to give us new life. As our creator, He saw potential in us. So, God sent Jesus so that we could have a forever new life now and an eternal home someday with Him.  He sets us on His firm foundation and repairs our brokenness. We just have to choose to get up and move and follow Him. For God can make even us, sinners, fully repaired in His grace and His love and there is nothing more beautiful than that.

A new foundation 

John 3:16 NIV

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

2 Corinthians 5:17 NIV

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!
