The Floors of God’s House

We have watched the construction of our new building for many months now and as we near its completion and the first weekend that we will worship together within its walls I began to think a lot about the different parts of the building itself. It’s interesting to think about what parts of the building we would consider the most important. Some would feel that the roof above our heads is the most important, others might feel that the walls that surround us are the most important, and still others might feel that the windows or the doors are most important. While I am not sure what physical part of the building is considered the most important, I am particularly drawn to the floors. Why the floors? The floor is where we stand. The floor is what gives us our support. No matter where we are in the building we are always standing on the floor and as we stand on the floor we also stand on the Word of God. This past weekend we took the opportunity to express our love for God’s Word by placing those Bible verses that are most meaningful to us on the floors of our new building. The floor of each room is now filled with those verses that are most meaningful to you…God’s children… and even though those verses will soon be covered by tile the strength of those words will support us every day. While it will always be true that we will be literally standing on the Word of God when we are in our new building, it is important that we remember to use God’s Word as the “floor” of our lives each and every day. I’m excited about where CCMV is headed in the months to come and know that we will always be strong with the Word as our foundation…both literally and spiritually.
