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 +
