Luke 6:48 He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was founded on the rock.

In order to build a house that is going to stand up to the very worst that the weather can throw at it, we should aim to build it on the best possible foundations.

Lighthouses are built on rocks, not just to warn ships away from those rocks, but because they have a better chance at surviving!

For us to survive in life we should build our lives on the best foundation… and that is love, the love that Christ has shown us from the beginning.

Ephesians 3:17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

It is not how much strength and wisdom we can dig up, accept or take in that will shape how well we get on in life…

It is how much God is willing and able to fill us with!

All we need to have is faith that we will be able to accept something from God and we can then allow Him to fill our lives with as much as we need.

He knows our needs better that we do and is able to fill our needs in ways that we cannot comprehend. All Him to work in your life!

Proverbs 4:6 Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you; Love her, and she will keep you.

When we do gain wisdom and understanding from God we should be keeping it and growing with it as if it were as special to us as the person we love.

God wants us to understand many things, including our life with Him; we do not have to understand every single aspect immediately, but grow consistently with Him.

Keeping what we learn in our hearts and living by it will go a long way for us to understand things better,

Loving God means loving all aspects of Him including His law.

Proverbs 4:5 Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth.

When you gain knowledge about something the best thing to do with that knowledge is to use it!

God continues to try to give us knowledge and wisdom through the Holy Bible and the people He places around us that can understand it better.

When we gain that understanding and knowledge, hiding it from everyone does sound a bit pointless.

But what is also pointless is turning you back on your new-found knowledge. If you want God to guide you, listen to Him!
