This week’s passage concludes the section we started last week on the wise and foolish builders.

Jesus has equated wisdom with listening to and obeying his words.

Take a look at the passage in Matthew 7:26-27.

Last week, we looked at the positive side of the equation, the wise homeowner. This week, we are memorizing the opposite side of the coin, the foolish man.

I’ve had moments where I know I’ve made decisions that fall into this negative category. My goal is to make this happen less and less.

And the key is to be listening to and applying the words of Christ into my life.

Simple.

What areas do you find yourself struggling to listen to Christ? Let me know in the comments.
