Will you stand?

The past few days I've just been thinking about how a lot of peole are going to do once school starts up tomorrow. It's amazing to me how many people claim to be a christian, but their lives don't reflect that. Here is a little story from the Bible that I read earlier this week that has been stuck in my mind all week long and that I shared at Reality this past Sunday night.

"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. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and doe not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash." Matthew 9:24-27

We all know that in life we are going to have hard times. When those hard times come... will you be ready? Will you already have a good foundation in your relationship with God or will you be like the house built on sand and come crashing down? I just wanted to share this so that you can be ready when those hard times come. Be like the first part of this story and put God's word into action in your life. It's easy to live a life saying I'm a christian, but are you living it & not just talking abou it? If you struggle, pray and ask God to help you make the right decisions and to do what's right. Keep the faith & don't give up!

If you have any questions or need prayer for anything just let me know!
