Good morning,
Grace and peace be unto you!
Growing up my grandma used to sing this song,
In times like these you need a Savior,
In times like these you need an anchor;
Be very sure, be very sure,
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
This Rock is Jesus, Yes He's the One,
This Rock is Jesus, the only One;
Be very sure, be very sure,
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
So while some might say, that's an old time song, I want you to consider the thought behind it. As I watch the news I would not argue that we need a saviour and solid foundation to stand upon in this turbulent world we live in. Everybody is seeking stability from unstable sources. Reality television and social media create a false sense of reality. It is not difficult to understand why we are experiencing pain and frustration when the foundation is not stable. We all need a solid rock to build upon.
That rock is Jesus. The lover of my soul. The lifter of my head. You might call him something else but ultimately he is the solid rock we should be building upon. A firm and stable foundation in such unstable times.
Matthew 7
24 “Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. 25 Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock. 26 But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. 27 When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.”
Until tomorrow
#liveBlessed
