(Devoting yourself to the Lord in your own words/language and culture)
Matthew 7:26...And Jesus spoke and said whosoever hear my words and abide by them I will liken to a wise man that builds his house on a Rock...
Its true that duct tape and cinder blocks are very useful items for most of us southern folks. Theres a lots of things you can fix with duct tape. In one southern state the New Quarter was two dimes and a nickel duct taped together. And cinder blocks, every one needs at least twelve of them, mostly to prop up the old car or truck and make pretty flower holders says Ma. And if you have four of 'em heck you got a bed frame. Its good to have solid heavy rocks to prop up your important things. I am sure Ma and Pa wouldnt want the bed falling down with the younguns in it.
Just as strong and dependable as the cinder block, Jesus is the rock we need. When you are resting on Jesus, you are resting on rock. Solid rock. With Jesus as our Rock, we can rest sure far trusting we won't fall jest like that bed holding up the younguns while they sleep.
Jesus, we look to You, the Rock of our faith, the cinderblock of strength in all our troubles. Thank you for being a solid rock we can count on to keep us safe.
