Everything but You is Mere Sand

Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O lord, my rock and my redeemer.  (Psalm 19:14 NAS)

 

My mouth will speak wisdom, and the meditation of my heart {will be} understanding. (Psalm 49:3 NAS)

 

Consulting the Lord:

 

Lord, I am standing on You and all else is sand.  Lord, I am believing in You and all else is erroneous.  Lord, I am trusting in You and all else is deception.

 

As I confessed these things to you Lord, I saw a vision:

 

It was myself standing—confidently standing and thinking—assuming I am standing on Jesus in faith…  Then the sand began to give away around the outside of my right foot.  I am losing my balance, I thought to myself.  (Have you ever gone to the beach and stood at the seashore; standing there feeling the sand erode around your feet?  Erie feeling isn't it? Well, that is how it felt to me in this vision.)

 

Lord, what is this and what does this mean?  As the earth slips away from under my foot, I realize that beneath my foot I could clearly see what I was standing on. The inner part of my right foot and the total left foot was standing on a solid GOLD rock…  A piece of Jesus!

 

Lord I am standing on You, for sure! For sure, I am on solid ground when I am on You.  You are allowing life and life's circumstances to erode all that is not of You. For sure, You will wash away whatever is not You and then I will be able to stand on You ALONE!

 

Do not let a day go by without applying spiritual principles and truths to your life!  I will be sharing some of the everyday living the Lord has shown me about myself. He is allowing me to see what He is changing in me!  Maybe in you too!
