Though it isn’t the norm,
prepare for the storm
by building your house with foundations.
Though strong winds may blow,
and rain-floods may flow,
your home will survive wild conditions.
And those who have heard
Christ’s wisdom, God’s Word,
can choose to obey or discard them.
But those who obey,
when storms come their way
will stand firm whatever assails them.
But those who discard,
will find when life’s hard,
their principles tumble around them.
cf Matthew 7:24-27 in the Sermon on the Mount: The wise and foolish builders
