It’s Not Just a Feeling, It’s a Foundation
"All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness" - 2 Timothy 3:16
There are going to be days when you don’t feel it. Days when you don’t feel strong, when you don’t feel spiritual, when you don’t feel like worshiping, and maybe even when you don’t feel like believing. But your faith was never meant to rest on your feelings. It was meant to rest on the foundation of God's Word.
Paul reminded Timothy that Scripture is God-breathed. That means every verse carries the weight and authority of heaven behind it. It’s not just a book of good thoughts. It’s not just a motivational guide. It’s the foundation for everything you need to stand strong in your faith, especially when emotions are nowhere to be found.
If you're trying to build your life on how you feel each day, your life will always be unstable. Feelings are real, but they’re not reliable. God didn’t call you to live from feeling to feeling. He called you to live by faith in His Word. That Word never changes, never fails, and never fades.
When you don't feel like God is near, the Word says He is. When you feel weak, the Word reminds you that He gives strength. When you feel lost, the Word lights your path. The Word becomes your weapon when you're under attack and your anchor when the waves get heavy.
You don’t need to wait until you feel better to believe better. You don’t have to wait for motivation to start moving in faith. You have everything you need in the Word of God to live the life He called you to. Let Scripture teach you, shape you, correct you, and train you. Let it form your foundation.
The strength of your life won’t be built on emotional highs. It will be built on the unshakable truth of God’s Word. Plant yourself there, and when the feelings fade, your faith will still stand.
