May 4 – Luke 6: 46-49 comments

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.

Luke 6:46-49 NIV “Why do you call Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and do not do what I say? I will show you what he is like who comes to Me and hears My words and puts them into practice.

God-breathing us to be made like Jesus. Forming, molding, remaking us through His word. Through Jesus. If we read, if we listen to His Spirit, if we obey His nudges, we will find ourselves changing — and WE will be the most surprised! Surprised by freedom and joy. And... Read More
