Rock or Sand?

Psalm 42:7 - Deep calls to deep at the roar of your waterfalls; all your breakers and your waves have gone over me.

Psalm 95:1-2 - Oh come, let us sing to the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation! Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!

Matthew 7:24-27 - "Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on the house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against the house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it."

Matthew 7:24-25 (CEV) - Anyone who hears and obeys these teachings of mine is like a wise person who built a house on solid rock. Rain poured down, rivers flooded, and winds beat against that house. But it did not fall, because it was built on solid rock.

Dear God, anything that does not agree with Your Word is sand and should not be trusted. God, when people try to say they cannot minister to people with special needs even though that is exactly what Your Son did and commands, then they are are going against Your Word. Often when they say that, they have excuses. Well, that is wrong! When they try to force the person with special needs to change or when they try to treat the person with special needs as though their special needs are sins or they exclude them rather than include them, they are going against Your Word. Oh how foolish they are when they do these things! Thank You for teaching me about rock versus sand. Help me to build upon the solid rock and not upon the sand. Thank You! In Jesus' Name, Amen!
