(Jesus said,) “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)
Lord Jesus, I know far less than I think I know. You, on the other hand, know far more than I realize you know. I'm grateful that you are the one who gives instruction and guidance. You share your wisdom with us because you care about us and want us to prosper. You have given us a solid foundation for a wise life. Indeed, you are the solid foundation. Therefore, it just makes sense that I avoid building things that are off foundation. Help me so that every thought, word, and deed I construct today are rising up from the foundation. I'm going to follow your building instructions. Amen.
