A very telling and clear message from Jesus today: "Build your house on solid rock." "Not everyone who says to me, :Lord, Lord," will enter the Kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven." (Mt 7: 21) . "Everyone who listens to these word of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and buffeted the house. But it did not collapse; it had been set solidly on rock." ( Mt 7: 24-25) We clearly are called to build our house, our relationship with God, on solid ground, Who would want to build it on sand? Yet, we often find ourselves doing just that...building on the ephemeral, superficial or "popular" thought of the day, and missing the deep, time tested, gospel based truths that have carried the Church and believers for centuries. This gospel passage today (Mt 7: 21-29) bears the solid truth that our house must be built on solid rock...May settle for nothing less.
