Ever heard the word "stratigraphy?" There is a diagram to the right that gives an example of stratigraphy. It is the study of the many layers of earth deep below our feet. In one article I read stratigraphy was described as "learning from the portals from the past." The DEEPER you DIG down into the earth, the more layers are uncovered. Each layer uncovered helps geologists and archaeologist understand more about the make up of the earth below us as well as the history of that specific area.
This message is about the stratigraphy of our lives. In the movie "Shrek," Shrek tries to let Donkey know that Ogres are like onions. They have many layers. The more layers you work through the more you understand about Ogres. Shrek was right. We all have many layers, and the DEEPER we DIG in our lives the more we understand about our ourselves and history. Each layer we work through as individuals and families gets us one step closer to the "bedrock" of our lives. That bedrock is Jesus Christ! When we build our lives on him and His Truth, we are able to stand firm when all around us may be shake and fall.
How many of us have attempted to build lives without a strong foundation. We must first DIG DEEP through the layers of time, so that our feet and families are firmly planted on the ROCK, Jesus Christ. Hope this message blesses, encourages, and challenges you today! I was challenged by all that the Holy Spirit spoke to me.
