Thanks for A SOLID FOUNDATION

Ezra 3:10-12 10 When the builders completed the foundation of the Lord’s Temple, the priests put on their robes and took their places to blow their trumpets. And the Levites, descendants of Asaph, clashed their cymbals to praise the Lord, just as King David had prescribed. 11 With praise and thanks, they sang this song to the Lord:
   “He is so good!
      His faithful love for Israel endures forever!”

   Then all the people gave a great shout, praising the Lord because the foundation of the Lord’s Temple had been laid.
 12 But many of the older priests, Levites, and other leaders who had seen the first Temple wept aloud when they saw the new Temple’s foundation. The others, however, were shouting for joy.

Today, I'm thankful for the the foundation that was laid long before me.  My foundation of JESUS Christ, the foundations of Calvary Church that when I came to the points in my life that CHRIST had met me....He was true to His word that He is constantly preparing a place for me.   That place or those places are not just my final destination (HEAVEN) but places on this side of eternity that He desires for me to meet particular people, connect with, and seek to glorify Him through those relationships.   Pictured is one of the many faces of the C4 (Calvary Church Connections Campus) worship teams, and while you can't see the issues or burdens that each person may have, you can see that they worship from wherever that is!   The priest and people in the above scripture worshipped from the same places.....and they did it wholly because they had experienced the GOODNESS of the LORD!  

My challenge to you today is to think about where you are, were, and sing from there about the GOODNESS OF GOD!  LGLP
