Houses built on rock can survive floods, but those on sand can be washed away (Mt. 7:24-27). Children understand this.
A fire will destroy a house built with wood, hay and straw, but a house built with gold, silver and precious stones will stand (1 Co. 3:12-13). Children understand this.
These are spiritual truths. Children understand this.
And you know what? Adults often understand them too.
How sad when those adults don't live up to their understanding, for themselves, and the children they are robbing and misleading.
You just want to shake them and scream, WAKE UP, PAY ATTENTION, DO RIGHT.
Psalms 37:3-9
(3) Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
(4) Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
(5) Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
(6) And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
(7) Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
(8) Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
(9) For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.
