Presented at Curwensville Alliance on 5/18/25 by Pastor Steve Shields.
There are right and wrong ways to build a life.
They differ in terms of the builder. Is the builder wise or foolish?
They differ in the place. Am I building on rock or sand?
They differ on the outcome. Does it stand in the storm or does it fall with a great crash?
The deciding factor on the way to build your life is the builder and the foundation.
How to be a good builder? It’s more a matter of being than doing. It’s more a matter of dying to self and becoming alive to Christ. It’s more a matter of internalizing Jesus’ Words than busying yourself.
Keys to being wise. Be a person of Godly character. Be a person who sees your own faults. Be a person who trusts in God.
These keys are found at the cross. I want to build well, God, but I don’t know how. So, I come to the cross; I come to die to self. I come to the cross because I trust You completely.
