Bible Commentary

Matthew 7:25

The storms of life are coming. Jesus does not promise a storm-free life — He promises a storm-proof foundation. Life built on His words holds when everything shakes.

Memory phrase: Built on rock, it stood firm

Talk about it: What kinds of 'storms' do people face in life? (hard times, sadness, scary things, trouble)

Prayer: Jesus, be my rock. When hard things come, I want to be standing because I am built on You.
