Its interesting , as I read this again the message was more about our faith standing the test.
I began to think about the man who built his house on the sand verces the man who built his house on the rock. But a step further.
The scripture says, ones foundation it Jesus will stand, but how will the building hold in faith.
If your mateials are weak, the fire will consume the building yet the foundation will remain. Salvation.
I began to think about how my house would hold up against the tests of faith, and fire.
Will it remain intact?
To often we rely on our works, our acts as a testamony of our faith,as our streangth.
But I have learned that the world can rip those materials apart quickly.
Leaving one thinking, how can this be? Were not the things I did proof of faith? ( The strong house?)
It is a good witness to do good works, but the true test is faith! That no matter what burns or steals, or destroys ones house.( works)
One's faith rested always in Jesus is the material that withstands all that will try to destroy.
The best way I can try to say this is, no matter what proof, work , or witness. All can be brought down.
It is faith, that will withstand when all is taken.
In Jesus. Faith, hope, and love, these materials will stand against any assault or fire.
When the imperfect passes, the perfect comes.
in Jesus, God bless. pickles
