Luke 6:46-49 Builders and Foundations

“ Why do you call Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and do not do what I say? Everyone who comes to Me and hears My words and acts on them, I will show you whom he is like: he is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid a foundation on the rock; and when a flood occurred, the torrent burst against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well built. But the one who has heard and has not acted accordingly, is like a man who built a house on the ground without any foundation; and the torrent burst against it and immediately it collapsed, and the ruin of that house was great.”

What is your story? Do you find yourself to be constantly in a hurry? Do you take the time and show the care to have a solid foundation in all that you do, or is your life better described as folly if the truth were known? Acting with wisdom does not come naturally. One must think before you do something, because every thing that you do, cannot be undone. Everything is manifest, for better or for worse. Important matters need to be seen everyday and made central in all that we do. When Jesus was a child, He declared he was about His Father’s business, and so we must be also.

Daily Prayer: Lord Jesus, You died on the Cross to pay the penalty for my sins, so that I would not have to perish, but receive eternal life. Then You gave me but One Command: “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Let it be as You say. Amen.
