Luke 6 : 48 - 49
v48 “He is like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid the foundation on rock. When a flood came, the torrent struck that house but could not shake it, because it was well built.”
v49 “But the one who hears my word and does not put them into practice is like a man who built a house on the ground without foundation. The moment the torrent struck that house, it collapsed and its destruction was complete.”
Modern people like us love to have things done quickly. The shorter time it takes the better. We seldom think of the quality, it is always the quantity.
Do we have to live this way? Taking short cuts here and there just because we can make things work without investing some effort.
Perhaps life would be more interesting if we just exert a little effort. At least we are ready when we meet troubles.
If we take our lives lightly, we will be completely unprepared like the man building his house on sandy ground. We will lose all we have in a split of second!
God was serious when He first built His Kingdom. He still is serious when dealing with us, His children. He has never treated us lightly. That is why we should be as serious as Him.
