BLUEPRINT FOR LIFE

(Based on Mt 7:24-27)

When a wise man goes to build a house,

He lays his foundation on rock.

When the rains come, and the winds blow,

He has the strongest house on the block.

If a foolish man builds his house on sand,

And rain and winds start to lash,

The shifting foundation will not withstand,

And his house will fall with a crash.

Christ should be the cornerstone,

To insure a solid foundation.

His Word provides the blueprint,

For each person and for a nation.

So build on Christ--a solid rock,

And not on sinking sand;

Your house will stay together,

If it is built by the Master’s hand.

Note: Your house is the one that holds your heart and soul. It also applies to families and nations.
