Putting the Word into Practice

What could be more solid than a rock firmly planted deep in the ground? Some would say: a bank account, a secure job, a stable marriage, a united family. Yet Jesus tells us something astonishing: the only real stability in life is putting His Word into practice.

Why? Because everything that seems stable is actually fragile, money can vanish, jobs can change, even the dearest relationships can break. The storm comes to everyone, and only what is built on the rock of God’s Word will stand.

It is not enough to listen to the Word or to know it by heart. Putting it into practice is what makes the difference between a house that falls and one that stands firm. True faith is not just made of good intentions, but of concrete choices, actions founded on the truth.

If we want our lives to remain unshaken, we must build them on the rock, every day, decision after decision, trusting in the living and eternal Word of God.

Prayer: Lord, help me not to be just a hearer, but a true doer of Your Word. I want to build my life on the rock of Your truth.
