The Wise and Foolish Builders

Like a wise man who built his house on the rock…

What does it mean to build something strong? It takes an incredible amount of patience and time. Strong foundations, relationships, friendships, or a career are all built on trust. That trust built over long periods of waiting, watching, and learning. We are often quick to rush many things and this all ties back into faith and patience.

Like our lives, faith is truly an act of strength. Your faith should not be knocked down the moment it is tested. Your faith should not go away because there is calm and joy. Faith is a bond and a glue that frames together the existence of our daily lives.

We can choose to be wise and take our time. We can choose to be foolish and rush the process. The choice is always in our hands to build an endless game or to be a humble servant of strength and fortitude.
