Sometimes, going back to the beginning is the only way to move forward. For me, to take the next steps in growing my faith, I had to first accept that I wasn't even basic. The strength of our basic foundation is what holds us up when life's inevitable storms rage around us. Our foundations were tested by a tornado. Lessons I learned while researching for Not Even Basic gave me the strength to withstand a storm trying to dismantle more than just my home. Hebrews 6:1-2 changed me, giving my foundation the strength I needed to weather large storms. Whatever we face, we can be assured that God will never leave us or forsake us (Deuteronomy 31:6). However, the stronger we make our foundation, the easier it is to see and hear Him while the winds howl around us.
