When thinking about painting ideas the story in Matthew 7:24-27 came to mind. This is the story about the wise builder who built his house on the rock, and the foolish builder who built his on the sand. And when the storm came the house on the sand fell down, but the house on the rock stood firm.
As in the painting, I belive that God wants us to have a life with great views…to live an abundant life (John 10:10), but the storms of life will come, be it a financial storm, a health storm, a relationship storm, etc. It is during these times that we need to be anchored firmly. Jesus said that He is the rock, and listening to His words is how we get anchored to Him.
What are you anchored on? What is it that gives you stability in life? What do you put your trust in?
