"Christ alone, Cornerstone
Weak made strong, in the Savior's love
Through the storm
He is Lord, Lord of All"
- Cornerstone, Hillsong
I was excited when I read the verses and name for today because I have experience Christ as my Cornerstone in a real way over the past few months. Many of you know that my dad was in a very serious motorcycle accident in September and it has been a long journey since then. I am incredibly grateful to have him home, but my family has definitely walked through the valley of the shadow of death. It was scary to say the least to receive a phone call that your dad is intensive care in a hospital 18 + hours away. Especially during those first few weeks I played Hillsong's 'Cornerstone' on repeat. I needed to believe and be reminded that He is my Cornerstone, my Firm Foundation especially when it seemed like the ground I was standing on was falling out beneath me. I am encouraged now to tell you that God showed me in a real and much needed way that He remains, He is faithful and that I needed to lean on Him and nothing else. Through the storm, He is my Lord of All.
Therefore thus says the Lord God, "Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a tested stone, A costly cornerstone for the foundation, firmly placed. He who believes in it will not be disturbed. - Isaiah 28:16
Dear Jesus,
I praise You for being my Cornerstone through storms and trials, highs and lows; You have remained my Firm Foundation through it all. Thank You that my feelings, circumstances and emotions don't change who You are. Jesus I know I wouldn't have made it through the past few months without You. Thank You. Amen.
