Topic: Am I building my life on a solid foundation? (26 June 2025 - Only By Grace Reflections)

First Reading: Genesis 16:1-12, 15-16
Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 106:1b-2, 3-4a, 4b-5
Alleluia: John 14:23
Gospel: Matthew 7:21-29

If we build our lives on shifting sand, we will fall. Christ is our Rock who hold us firm in every storm. It is about living the will of the Father during the storm, even in our quiet moments when storms are yet hidden or when no one is watching.

Faith is not about words but action. To say "Lord, Lord" reflects that His will is being done in our lives. But why does Jesus tell those who prophesy and who work miracles, "I never knew you, Depart from Me".

What was evil? It is because they do their great works without obedience, humility, and love; therefore, for God, their works are empty and merely done for their glory.
