JOURNAL/ROCK OR SAND

"EVERYONE who listens to these words of mine and acts on them-will be like a WISE MAN-who BUILT his house on rock"       Matthew 7:24

EVERYONE must build their life on something-WE can build it on fame and fortune-sexual identity-science-our weaknesses and addictions but ONLY by building our lives on GOD'S WORD will our lives TRULY stand the TEST OF TIME

GOD'S WORDS lead to life
GOD'S WORDS are truth
GOD'S WORDS and actions are FULL OF LOVE

it is a GREAT DAY to be ALIVE in GOD'S LOVE for us and a GREAT DAY to begin building our lives on the WORD OF GOD-the ROCK of our lives




“Rock or Sand”


All my life, I have prayed that I wouldn’t have run when the other Apostles ran away
2000 years ago.  And would have went to my death with Jesus.

Perhaps that is why I survived all those years ago when I was given zero % chance to live.
Perhaps that is why I am still alive some 30 years later.

Since I couldn’t die with Jesus, I have tried to live a life based on Jesus’ teachings:

   1.  Love God with your whole heart, your whole soul, your whole mind, and all your strength.

   2.  Love your neighbor as yourself.

   3.  Forgive 70 X 7.

   4.  And live the Beatitudes.

I added to that 2 things that my Mother taught me:

    1.  Love draws a circle and pulls people in.  Hate draws a circle and pushes people out.

    2.   And the truth is the truth and a 1000 bands of angels can’t make a lie the truth.

So, have I built my life on rock or sand?  I can’t answer that.  That’s for God and others to decide.
