Castles In The Sand

This song came out of a time when I was feeling discouraged, and began to realize that it was because I had been misplacing my hope.  My priorities had gotten mixed up, and I was disappointed because I was dreaming of temporary things instead of eternal ones.  It is based on Matthew 7:24-27   “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”  God used this song to help me refocus; to remember that it is ok to dream, but I need to be dreaming God's dreams, because they are the ones that matter.
