 According
to
Merriam-Webster
Online
Dictionary,
a
foundation
is
the
basis
upon
which
something
stands
or
is
supported.
In
the
life
of
a
Christian,
the
foundation
is
extremely
imperative.
The
foundation
is
the
first
step
of
our
Christian
walk
and
everything
else
in
our
lives
follows.
Our
foundation
will
determine
the
outcome
of
our
spiritual
walk.
I
knew
someone
who
grew
up
in
a
Christian
family.
He
went
to
church
a
few
times
a
week
and
went
through
all
the
"Christian"
routines.
He
told
me
he
prayed,
read
the
bible,
fellowshipped,
sang,
etc.
After
talking
with
him
a
few
years,
he
has
realized
that
he
still
feels
empty
inside.
He
told
me
how
he
would
see
new
Christians
extra
excited
about
God
and
some
existing
Christians
excited
also
but
wondered
why
he
didn’t
feel
the
same
way
the
others
felt.
I
told
him
to
ask
God
why
he
didn’t
feel
as
excited
as
the
others
felt
though
he
was
active
in
the
church
and
living
like
a
Christian.
After
a
few
weeks
of
breaking
down
scripture
and
talking
about
it
with
some
people,
he
realized
that
he
was
doing
the
“Christian
routines”
but
didn’t
have
Step
1,
a
foundation.
Realizing
this
changed
his
views
on
everything.
1
Corinthians
3:11
says
“For
no
other
foundation
can
anyone
lay
than
that
which
is
laid,
which
is
Jesus
Christ.”
This
simple
verse
means
so
much
to
me.
I
understand
that
Christ
is
the
foundation
and
He
will
make
any
changes
in
my
life
that
I
allow
Him
to.
I
expressed
this
to
him
and
it
gave
him
comfort.
As
humans,
we
want
to
rely
on
our
strengths
to
make
changes
yet
Jesus
tell
us
in
Matthew
11:28,
“Come
to
Me,
all
you
who
labor
and
are
heavy
laden,
and
I
will
give
you
rest.”
In
other
words,
He
doesn’t
want
us
to
use
our
strengths
but
allow
Him
to
do
it.
Sometimes
it’s
hard
to
understand
but
God
works
inside/out
not
outside/in.
God
works
on
our
mind,
heart
and
soul
first.
The
outcome
of
His
work
in
us
is
clearly
seen
by
our
actions
or
fruits.
We
want
to
do
good
deeds
so
that
God
would
by
glorified
but
deeds
are
secondary
to
Him
working
in
our
lives.
The
good
deeds
will
come
naturally
once
God
starts
doing
a
work
in
us.
After
praying
and
just
plainly
asking
for
Him
to
make
the
changes,
my
life
changed
completely.
Have
you
ever
thought
about
how
your
Christian
walk
is?
Have
you
forgotten
to
remember
who
your
foundation
is?
When
we
are
absolutely
sure
that
Jesus
Christ
is
our
foundation
and
we
yield
to
Him
and
allow
Him
to
make
changes
in
your
life
and
truly
allow
Him
to
reign
in
all
parts
of
our
lives
then
God
will
do
an
extraordinary
thing
in
our
lives.
