Season 1 Episode 310
Heavy Stone
1
Don’t brag about tomorrow,
since you don’t know what the day will bring.
2
Let someone else praise you, not your own mouth—
a stranger, not your own lips.
3
A stone is heavy and sand is weighty,
but the resentment caused by a fool is even heavier.
Jesus called a rich man a fool for planning to build bigger barns, knowing he would die before those plans could happen. This reminds us that no one, not even the rich or powerful, can control the future—only God can.
Verse 2 teaches that it's better to have someone else praise you rather than bragging about yourself.
Verse 3 describes how frustrating it is to deal with a fool. It’s compared to trying to dig in sand—no matter how much you move, it keeps filling back in, or hitting a huge, heavy stone that’s impossible to move. Dealing with a fool is even harder than that.
Think about this: I’ve known college athletes who had big dreams of going pro in football, soccer, or baseball. When they got injured, they felt lost and didn’t know what to do next. Do you plan your life months in advance? It may not be wise, because there are so many things beyond your control.
