After the super typhoon Yolanda struck the Visayas region, images of
shattered homes and washed out places was seen in places where the super
typhoon landed. I was reminded of a Bible passage in
Luke 6: 46-49
46 “Why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and do not do what I say? 47 As for everyone who comes to me and hears my words and puts them into practice, I will show you what they are like. 48 They
are like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid the
foundation on rock. When a flood came, the torrent struck that house but
could not shake it, because it was well built. 49 But
the one who hears my words and does not put them into practice is like a
man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. The moment
the torrent struck that house, it collapsed and its destruction was
complete.”
Those who trust in God is like a man who built his house in a solid foundation. Storms may come but it will not ruin the house. How many times our faith will be tested by so many storms in our lives. So many winds of anxiety and hopelessness. Sometimes the trials are unbearable and will drag us to give up. The Bible passage is a very good reminder for us to really put our trust in God. Lean on Him as our strong tower and do not depend on our own ability to survive.
