“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.” Matthew 7:24

In Caprock Canyons, Texas, you will see broken and brittle sandstone as you walk along the trails. The vibrant pink and cream colors in the eroded rock formations will catch your eye. These rocks have undergone much change over time and are no longer the stable support they once were.

If there’s one thing we all know about life, it’s that it is constantly changing. So as believers in Jesus Christ, we take great comfort in the truth that our Savior is “the same yesterday, today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). We don’t know what lies ahead, but we do know our trustworthy, rock-solid Savior not going to shift or change. Jesus said that making His words the bedrock of our life is like a wise man who built his house on a sure foundation. When the storms of life usher in difficult seasons, we will stand unshaken, not because of our own strength but because Christ is holding us steady.

Have you made Jesus your foundation? Are you trusting Him on a daily basis even as everything around you seems to be eroding and crumbling?

Insight: Lord, You are the One who holds all things together, and I know You hold my life. Give me faith to trust Your Word. Amen.
