The Plumb Line
Amos 7:1-17
PassageFor millennia builders have used a plumb line to measure accuracy of a vertical surface such as a wall. It consists of a weight suspended from a thin cord, and uses gravity to help create a reference line for comparison.
God’s Word is our plumb line to use as a reference for our lives. It provides clear definition of how we should measure our walk with God. Many times we want to compare how others “line up” without looking at ourselves.
Through Amos, God let the people of Israel know they did not measure up, and He was about to bring destruction. As we look at our own “plumb line” we see that as stated in Romans 2:23, we all fall short, but we have a Savior who has sacrificed for us, and gives us assurance that through Him we have new hope and alignment, as we are presented before our Maker.
