Be Wise
“Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock.” —Matthew 7:24-25 (NLT)
One thing we can be sure of is that the storms are going to come. Jesus said, “Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows.” (See John 16:33 NLT) Don’t be like a foolish person. In Matthew 7:26-27 (NLT) Jesus says, “anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.”
