ReNewed (Rejected Foundation) ~ Poem ~

 



ReNewed (Rejected Foundation)


I was a house gutted

down to bare boards.

But soon to be Restrutted, Renewed and Restored.


My foundation was Rejected

by the builders alone.

But precious (to) Jesus

The Eternal Capstone!


The Earth is God's

and all therein.

Jesus Christ is LORD!

Sovereign!


"Jesus said to them, 'Have you never read in the Scriptures: "The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; this was the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?" ' " (Matthew 21:42)



"Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with CHRIST JESUS himself as the CHIEF CORNERSTONE.  In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord.  And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit." (Ephesians 2:19-22) Emphasis mine.
