Jesus is ‘the stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone.’Acts 4:11
Takeaway
The leaders of Israel saw Jesus and said no—He didn't fit their blueprint, didn't meet their expectations, wasn't the kind of messiah they had ordered. But God didn't ask their permission. He made the rejected stone into the foundation itself. What the world discards, God builds upon. This is not a minor consolation; it's the entire structure of redemption.
Application
Where have you rejected Jesus in your own life—His forgiveness because you think you're too far gone, His lordship because you want to stay in control, His timing because you want your plan faster? Name it today. Then ask Him to rebuild your foundation on the stone you tried to throw away.
