THE ROCK OF OUR LIVES

THE ROCK OF OUR LIVES




WHO or what
Is the ROCK
Of your life


The anchor-the staple-
the center that
BINDS everything together


That entity
From which
ALL things flow


That entity
That makes all
other things GO


For me
I think
It has always been GOD


And on a conscious level
I KNOW it has been God
Since I was 22


And then, of course,
FAMILY, friends, and churches


I could NOT
Have survived this long
Without any of the above


And some might say-NOW-
NOT only surviving
But thriving


BECAUSE OF GOD
The ROCK of my life
(and because of family, friends, and church)


“I love you-O Lord-
My strength


O Lord
My rock
My fortress
My deliverer” Psalm 18:2-3


We live
In unstable times


There are many things
Demanding our time and attention


And times
Seem to be becoming
A little more UNCERTAIN
Every day


This is WHY
We need our ROCK-
OUR GOD
A little more every day


“MAY these words
Of my mouth


And this meditation
Of my heart


Be PLEASING
In your sight
Lord-MY ROCK-
And my REDEEMER” Psalm 19:14


OUR Lord
OUR God
THE ROCK of our lives


Sometimes our paths
Are rocky and are painful


That even making it
Through another day
Seems NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE


But we can do it
WHEN God
Is the ROCK
Of our lives


“PROCLAIMING
The Lord is upright


He is MY ROCK
And there is no wickedness
In him” Psalm 92:15


God wants to be
THE ONE
We lean on


The one
Who KEEPS us
Standing strong


He wants to be
THE ROCK
Of our lives


“For they drank
From the spiritual rock
That accompanied them
And that ROCK
WAS CHRIST” 1 Corinthians 10:4


GOD ENCOURAGES us
To develop
A relationship with him
And to make him
The FOUNDATION of our lives


We become more grounded
And stable


Let us ALL
Look to make God


THE ROCK OF OUR LIVES
