Sometimes when I sit before this keyboard to make this blog entry, it just seems that “writer's block” is surely the case today.  Then, within seconds, I'm reminded of just why there's a need for me to even attempt to write something that anyone can read for the choosing.  It's all about “Him.”  “Him” being my “Lord and Savior,”  “Jesus Christ.”  You see, this post is not about well written pieces, fancy articulation of words, or saying something with a spin that no one's  used before.  No.  It's to bear witness to the life of Christ.

When we know “Him,” there's always going to be something to be said for it.  He's just like this.  He's life in its greatest measure.  He's all-inclusive to our existence and purpose for inhabiting this earth. 

Today, I'm reminded of how He is the “Rock.” While I don't know about you, there seems to me a greater need every day for stability; Something or “Someone” in whom there's no danger of disappointment.  I'm talking about solidity when all around us is sinking sand. 

There are many things that can occur in this life that will change our lives forever.  A phone call, an email, a visit, a relationship, the ills of living in a fallen world, etc., but there's One on whom we can depend, solid as “The Rock,” who will never change or let us down, no matter the circumstance.

What's your situation today?  Is the ground a bit shaky beneath you?  Do you know where to turn, or do you find yourself saying, “I don't know which way to go?”  This “Rock” is waiting for you today.  Will you trust Him as the One on Whom you can depend?

He's there for the receiving, but He's not an intruder.  Will you make Him your Lord and Master today?  It's a decision you'll never regret.

Scripture References:

Matthew 7:24-27 “Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
And the rain descended,  and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.”

I Corinthians 10:4 “And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: AND THAT ROCK WAS CHRIST.”

Have a blessed week,
