Psalm 89:26 He will call out to me, ‘You are my Father, my God, the Rock my Savior.’
Growing up in Upstate New York allowed me to enjoy rivers and streams of Alleghany State Park or the vast flowing waters of Niagra Falls to the greatness of Lake Ontario. I now enjoy taking my family to these places. In all these spaces I can clearly recall the rock that splits a stream, the rocks that the Niagra Falls crash down on that only deflect the rushing falls, or the rock that forces a wave straight up in the air like the image above. It’s where I picture our Lord.
We are currently occupying a unique space in time and history. Waves of fear seem to come from all angles leaving us with uncertainty at work, health, school, family to travel. The waves can hit so hard that it is hard to catch a breath. When gasping for breath at a time like now where do you reach? Reach for our Rock, our Savior. He is the one who won’t move. Unfortunately, the waves will continue to come. Some days you may get wet. During this pandemic, you may feel like a tsunami has hit you and your life. Luckily we have a Rock, A Savior, one who stands above any wave. Are you ready to dry off? Look for the Rock, your Savior, now.
Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken. Psalm 62:6
