Without Faith

I found this illustration Fresh Ministry

They say that the Tower of Pisa in Italy is one of the most famous buildings in the world

But it has a "little problem".

It’s foundation was too shallow to hold the building up on the soft soil it was built on. The tower has stood for over 800 years, but it leans 18 feet off center. One day - experts say - it will fall.

All because it wasn’t built on the right foundation

Hebrews 11:6 says that "WITHOUT FAITH it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him."

The foundation of our relationship with Jesus is faith.

Unless we exercise faith in that relationship with Christ there is a shallowness to our foundation. We can tend to lean off center… and even fall over as Christians.
