These are comments from yesterday’s post on Luke 6: 46-49.

Are these last scriptures sounding like a broken
record? God wrote so many more, saying the
same thing. Because we’ll never “get it” if we
don’t do it! Understanding comes after obedience,
after doing. Look at these two house-builders.
What is the only difference in their houses? The
foundation. One “dug down deep” until he hit
bedrock. In the doing what God says, we
establish that principle on rock in our lives. We
understand. So when the storms come, we’ve
already practiced — we understand, so we
respond according to His word, instead of
panicking and responding according to our
old ways. We know we can trust Him and what
He’s said.
