When you do the whole bible in chunks, you realise that the whole of Jesus' ministry, or at least a gospel worth, can be read in a couple of hours. Compared to some of the early prophets that went on for a couple of days, Jesus really wasn't with us for that long. In fact, his disciples use up more words than he does. Well it's not the quantity, it's the quality.
But today took me past Matthew 7:24-27 about the wise and foolish builders. This reading was used for the Young Church last weekend. By way of demonstration, the house had shoogly foundations until the words of Jesus were used as underpinnings.
Perhaps not the best illustration, but you had to be there...
