Anchor points keep us secure. They hold us steady when everything around us shifts, and they keep us from drifting when the winds push against us. Faith is meant to be that kind of anchor. Trusting that God’s Word is true and His promises are reliable gives me something unshakable to hold onto when life feels uncertain. But an anchor only works if I actually use it. So how do I strengthen my faith? How do I consistently return to it when everything around me is pulling me in other directions?
Anchor points serve different purposes: workers use them to prevent falls, designers use them to guide their work, and sailors use them to keep boats from drifting. In the same way, God’s promises give us anchor points—truths that keep our hearts, perspectives, and goals steady and focused, so we don’t drift from Him. Over the next several weeks at Flagstone, we’ll explore some of these anchor points and discover how they can ground our actions, words, and thoughts in the truths that matter most.
