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. 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. I love to be in the outdoors hiking and camping except for when a sudden thunder storm rolls up. While I have been caught in a few storms, I am always grateful when the storms come and I am in my house. From the safety of my window I watch the storm coming and see its beauty and power. Jesus tells about a wise man who knew where and how to build a shelter from the storm. He not only listens to the words of Christ but puts them into practice. We can only truly survive the storms of life if our foundation is built on Jesus.
Prayer Lord of the Storm When we see strong storms coming, teach us to go to your word, to listen to your voice, and to put into practice what we have learned. Teach us to trust your word and build our houses on its strong foundation so that when sudden strong storms appear in our lives our houses stand. Amen
