Matthew 7:24
“Everyone who
listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who
built his house on rock.”
Ah yes, we always think about them, we
always care about them, we always see to it that we keep them forever.
But are we making sure that we are built a
solid foundation in our family life so that it will not collapse? Are we making sure that our spouses and kids
would act and live as what God wants, so our marriage will not go to waste?
Are we making sure that our home is built
on rock?
Building a house on sand means placing our
hopes and certainties in unstable and unpredictable things that cannot stand
the winds and scorns of time. All it
takes to bring everything crashing down is just a little more work, a little
time out to enjoy myself… and that “little” would start to get bigger and
bigger…
This has got to stop. From now on, let us take the time to
appreciate everything that God have already done and given us. And let us start with our own family.
Continue to build your house on rock. And let us start with thanksgiving and
praise. For giving our family to us, let
us thank Him fully.
Let us pray +
Almighty Father, we should always believe
and put our faith in You, Oh God. We
have been demanding a lot from You lately, of things that we may not need. And instead of waiting, we show doubt and
more disappointment for our faith is rooted on sand. Teach us to build our faith on solid ground
and act on Your Words faithfully and obediently. Amen +
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
