Do You Have A Sure Foundation?
By Mark Flippo
(NIV) Matthew 7:
24-“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25-The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26-But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27-The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”
This was a Sunday School song from my youth. It is extremely important. Teaching all how important it is to have a great foundation. How many times have we turned on the news and another house has fallen into a sinkhole. At times an earthquake with just a little jiggle shows that there was a big mistake, maybe on purpose to sell a house fast and it cracked.
Sadly it is not just houses. It can be a business. Jesus has warned us in His Word about asking about everything we do and say. If we would just listen we would save ourselves a lot of money and pain.
