““Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock.”
Matthew 7:24 NLT
I recently read about bridge builders building a bridge across a canyon. As there was subterfuge involved they did not build the stays on rock but rather on sand. When the heavy rains came a flood threatened the bridge structure and would have killed hundreds of people had it not been discovered in time.
If we build our lives on sand instead of rock, we threaten to destroy not only our own lives, but the lives of those who are dear to us, as we will teach them our wrong, and then they will replicate it.
A wise person listens to wisdom, takes it in and changes their own lives first, and then teaches others the way to build. Amen!
