Obeying Jesus is like....

Why do you call me Lord, Lord, and not do what I tell you?  Everyone who comes to me and hears my words and does them, I will show you what he is like:  he is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock.  And when a flood arose, the stream broke against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well built.  But the one who hears and does not do them is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation.  Went he stream broke against it, immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house was great.  Luke 6:46-49

When we follow Jesus, fully surrendered to him, He hides our hearts in Him.  During all seasons of life, we stand securely knowing He will always take care of us.  Even when hard times come or times of waiting are extended, we are not shaken because Jesus is our Rock and Foundation.  He has made us His to do His will in His timing.  It is not reversed....we belong to HIM!!  I pray my heart would always remember this in every season.
