The story of the 3 little pigs

Luke 6:46-49

“你们为什么称呼我主阿，主阿，却不遵我的话行呢？

凡到我这里来，听见我的话就去行的，我要告诉你们他像什么人。他像一个人盖房子，深深的挖地，把根基安在磐石上。到发大水的时候，水冲那房子，房子总不能摇动。因为根基立在磐石上。有古卷作因为盖造得好。惟有听见不去行的，就像一个人在土地上盖房子，没有根基。水一冲，随即倒塌了，并且那房子坏得很大。”

the first line was pretty much something that i struggle with everyday. such that i know what god wants me to do and yet i dont do it. due to personal greed or forgetfulness or pretended ignorance.

the road that christians have to walk is a tedious one. and what the bible tells us is always so different from what we learn from the world. sometimes i feel its easier to just pretend not to know or to pretend to forget.

but i know thats not what god wants us to do.

in the rest of the passage, the example of the intelligent and foolish builder was cited.

and i suddenly thought of the story of the 3 little pigs.

the 3 little pigs left home and have to build a house to live in and to keep away from the big bad wolf.

the first little pig built a house of straw, the second little pig built a house of twigs. both were smiling away and living happily in their houses as they watch their brother, the third little pig toil away and build a house of bricks.

and you know the rest of the story with the huffing and puffing by the big bad wolf.

when trouble strikes, when satan comes knocking.. which little pig would you want to be?

lets build our lives on the words of the Lord.
