Rock

The Book of Psalms is filled with songs and prayers of David that express a wide range of emotions. As you may know I believe in the power of music and its ability to stir us up in the deepest places of our hearts. I am thankful to those who have been blessed to create and produce music and do so out the love and passion they have to share their gifts. Today the words to one of David’s songs strikes me as comforting. I encourage you to read the entire Psalm 18…I will share the verse that grabbed my attention this morning below. Peace be with you on your journey. Amen.

“The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.”

Psalm 18:2

Firm foundation…strength…courage…determination…a shield…a place of refuge. When we think about solid rock it gives us the impression of strength to stand on or the protection to shield us. All of us has a rock in our lives, whether it is another person, a place or something else. The rock we all need is a solid relationship with Jesus Christ. He is our firm foundation, He gives us strength and courage, He gives us the fortitude to keep going and He is our shield and protector. Anything we could ever need will come from Him. Make time to build your relationship with Jesus Christ our Solid Rock! May you seek the Lord in your everyday life.
