"On The Rock"
by Pastor Simpkins

  Matthew 7:24-25 ^(NIV) Matthew 7:24-25 ^(KJV) Matthew 7:24-25 ^(AMP)

There are times in every Christian's life when challenges can hit us hard. This past week or so has been one of those times for me with physical, mental and spiritual tests.

In times like these, our foundation proves its' value - it is Jesus! The song, "The Solid Rock", came to mind. Some of the words are:

My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness.
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly lean on Jesus' name.

When darkness seems to hide His face
I rest on His unchanging grace.
In ev'ry high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the vale.

Chorus:

On Christ the Solid Rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.

Truly, there is no better place to be at any time than on the Rock!

Remember...

We need to always focus on Christ!

The blessing of our Lord on you and all that is yours by blood, adoption or assignment!
