Afterword (part IV)



Mom loved Jesus with all of her heart.  In talking with Aunt Julie, she said our Christian legacy goes back a long way.  Our family legacy won’t get us into Heaven.  It has to be each person making a personal decision to ask Jesus into their heart as personal Lord and Savior.

(NLT, Matthew 7.24)      “Anyone who listens to my teaching and obeys me is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock.  Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse, because it is built on rock.  But anyone who hears my teaching and ignores it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand.  When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will fall with a mighty crash.”

We are that house.  Christ needs to be our foundation because the winds are going to blow and beat upon our house.  Life is tough, therefore we need Christ as our Lord and Savior, so when the storms of life come (like death) we will stand firm.   

U  U  WILL YOU WALK BY FAITH?  U  U
