Download MP3 (right click to save) It has been a year of absolutely crazy weather, and I’m not going to forget the pictures out of Lake Delton, Wisconsin, when the rains caused the lake to burst through the embankment and totally drain out into the Wisconsin River. Now I love my home—you probably love yours—so it was hard to see entire three-story new homes just like collapse into the river. People watched their home float down the river. One home owner just said, “Very devastating!” I mean one minute your home looks like it’s going to be there for a long time, and then it’s gone. But home isn’t just a building—it’s the relationships. So how do we hold our home together when the monster waves hit? It might be financial, it could be medical or conflict or tragedy. I’m Ron Hutchcraft and the Bible helps us. It says, “He who fears the Lord has a secure fortress, and for his children it will be a refuge” (Proverbs 14:26). Now if your life’s anchored to a powerful, loving God that you cannot lose, your family has got an anchor for the flood. You begin that relationship by admitting to God that you’re not smart enough, you’re not strong enough, you’re not insightful enough. You’ve got to get empty before God. The Bible says, “The Lord is a stronghold in times of trouble” (Psalm 9:9). But for this anchoring God to be real for your family when you home’s getting hit, it’s got to be real for you first. Jesus is the One who gave His life to make that relationship possible. You’ve got to give Him your life. When He moves into you, He moves into your home. He is unsinkable, and you are in His hands. We’ve got a website that will help you, I think. It’s ALifeThatMatters.org, because God put you here to live a life that matters.
