Presented at Curwensville Alliance on 5\/18\/25 by Pastor Steve Shields. <\/h5>\n\n\n\n

There are right and wrong ways to build a life. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

They differ in terms of the builder.<\/strong> Is the builder wise or foolish? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They differ in the place. Am I building on rock or sand?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

They differ on the outcome. <\/strong> Does it stand in the storm or does it fall with a great crash?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The deciding factor on the way to build your life is the builder and the foundation. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to be a good builder?<\/strong> 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keys to being wise. <\/strong> Be a person of Godly character. Be a person who sees your own faults. Be a person who trusts in God. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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.<\/strong><\/p>\n
