A Quarter On The Sidewalk…
Growing up, some of my friends played a practical joke by gluing a quarter to the sidewalk. When someone would bend down to pick it up, it wouldn’t move. It was fixed to the sidewalk.
A quarter barely weighs anything, but super glued to the sidewalk, it weighs as much as the pavement. A cruel practical joke, but a great spiritual lesson. If you try to be strong, holy, and righteous in your own strength; your own weight, you will fall short. It’s not going to weigh much.
But if you affix yourself to God; to His righteousness, then His strength, His righteousness, His weight, His power, His resources, His abilities, and even His authority becomes yours. You’re going to live not by your own weight; not by the lightness of a coin, but by the solidity of the Rock, strong, as you join yourself to God.
Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. It’s a cosmic truth that can change your life. Live by the weight and power of the Rock and not by the lightness of a coin.
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10
Bind yourself to “The Rock of Jesus” today. Whatever comes against you comes against Him, and He is immovable.
Walk daily with God at your side!
Love always,
Ed
