“Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, each one’s work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one’s work, of what sort it is.”
I Corinthians 3:12-13 NKJV
Six different materials to build on. Working in disaster relief on destroyed homes, we never find wood, hay or stubble. Often, if the property owners identify a specific area where gold, silver, or precious stones are located, more often that not, we find them.
Pondering these verses and rolling them over in my head, if your life would be the material things in your possessions, after a fire, there is very little left. The amount of gold, silver and precious stones is pretty small compared to what has to be hauled away. We can build with any of these six materials, as always, it is our choice to choose the foundation material to which to erect our spiritual home…
I am praying that my spiritual building is the opposite of my material building…
