“Everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock.”
— Matthew 7:24 NASB1995
🏗️ Build on the Rock
It’s not enough to hear Jesus’ words—we must live them. Wisdom in the Kingdom is proven by obedience. Jesus draws a line between those who build their lives on His teaching and those who merely admire it.
The storms of life will come. Only those who have acted on His Word will remain standing.
🕊 Ante-Nicene Insight:
The early church wasn’t known for their eloquence or learning, but for their unwavering commitment to Christ’s commands. Their lives were built on the Rock—tested by persecution, but unshaken.
💭 Reflect:
- What am I building my life on—opinions or obedience?
- Is my faith rooted in action or appearance?
✨ Prayer:
Lord, I want to be wise in Your eyes. Teach me to obey You fully so my life stands firm when trials come. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
