Jesus ends the Sermon on the Mount with a call to choose our foundation.
Two builders.
Two houses.
One storm.
The one who hears and does His word stands firm.
Life in Him is built on obedience, not emotion.
Jesus also teaches about:
Asking and receiving
Seeking and finding
Knocking and open doors
The narrow way
True and false fruits
Reflection:
Is your life built on Christ’s teachings or on convenience?

DAY 4 – The Wilderness Before the Ministry (Matthew 4)
Before miracles, teachings, and crowds, Jesus went through testing.
The wilderness is not punishment — it is preparation.
Jesus overcame temptation by the Word, showing us that life in Him is sustained by truth, not feelings.
Then He called His first disciples with the invitation that still stands today:
“Follow me…”

LIFE IN HIM is a journey of trust. Are you ready to follow even when you don’t have all the details? -
Day 2 – PREPARE THE WAY
Welcome to Day 2 of Annual Blogmas. This year’s theme is LIFE IN HIM.Matthew 3 opens with John the Baptist crying out in the wilderness. His message was simple yet powerful: Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
LIFE IN HIM means preparation.
Before Jesus began His ministry, the hearts of people had to be made ready.
John reminds us that the life God wants to build in us begins with a turning:
— Turning from sin.
— Turning from self.
— Turning toward God.
When Jesus stepped into the water to be baptised, Heaven confirmed Him with love:
“This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
Reflection:
Are there areas God is calling you to prepare? LIFE IN HIM begins with a heart open and ready.
