Foundations Always Important Even in Small Things
Matthew 7:24
Therefore whoever hears these sayings of mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man, which built his house on a rock:


If you are going to paint a picture, and get the outline wrong (which is the foundation of the picture), all the picture will be wrong. If you have a long division sum to do, and make a mistake in the first step, all the sum will be wrong. A child soon learns that he cannot even build a card house on a shining, polished table, or on a crooked, ricketty table; or a house of toy bricks without a firm level foundation. How much more must this be so in greater matters!

(E. R. Conder, D. D.)
