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
