Thursday of the First Week of Advent

Not all who say to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the kingdom of heaven. But whoever does the will of my Father, who is in heaven, the same shall enter into the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, everyone who hears these words of mine and does them shall be compared to a wise man, who built his house upon the rock.
