Our Rock

COVID-19 has captured our attention, changed our lives and will affect us forever. The devotion below appeared in God is My Spinach in 2012. The foundations of our society have been shaken. There is reason to be concerned. Having a strong faith is an advantage

Our Rock

“There is no one holy like the LORD;
there is no one besides you;
there is no Rock like our God.”

(1 Samuel 2 vs. 2)

            Growing up in New England we often fished in streams and frequently crossed them by stepping from rock to rock. When we stepped on a loose one or slipped from one we got cold and wet. The analogy I am getting at is we chose the wrong rock! That is not an option with God.

            The Lord is the rock of our life; our foundation, and always with us. There are times when we forget that simple truth; when we feel lonely; when we will not let Him in to help. During those times we can feel cold and lonely. (Hopefully not wet!)

            Prayer and devotionals will help that situation. If you are reading this today you are probably sitting squarely on the rock.

Thought for Today: During hard and scary times, we need our foundation; our rock!

Prayer for Today: Heavenly Father, today we recognize you and give thanks for being our rock and foundation. We pray for ourselves, our families and our world.
