Manna

(ESV) Matthew 7:24 "Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 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. 26 And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. 27 And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it."

Jesus was nearing the conclusion of the Sermon on the Mount, very early in his ministry. We've all heard sermons on this and many of them focused on the rock and the sand. But to me a great truth is that the storm hit both houses. Wisdom is preparing for the storm, not running away from it. We shall all have trials, but if we prepare, the storms will relent before we do...

Trust Him...even in the storm,
