And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. (Matthew 7:25)

Daily reading: 1 Chronicles 27

Jesus wasn’t warning about climate change, but the need to build our lives to be secure against whatever hits us. Sometimes we see pictures of almost total disaster; yet an isolated building stands apparently undamaged, usually because of secure hidden foundations and sound building practices. Jesus’ words ring true. Lives built on anything other than Christ—feelings, success, religion, or reputation—will eventually crumble under pressure. We need to spiritually be on the Rock to avoid collapse when the invisible dangers of doubt and distress arise. Others might admire the outer life, but God looks at the foundation. If our lives are built on faith in Christ and obedience to His Word, we are secure. We may be battered, but we will not fall.
