Rock Of Refuge
June 20, 2013
One year during my vacation, I walked along the shoreline of a large lake. As I approached a pile of boulders, I noticed a small alcove between the rocks and observed that a tiny plant had taken root there. The plant appeared to be absorbing the right amount of sunlight and water, and it was also getting something else: protection. No downpour or windstorm would ruffle its tender leaves.
The plants secure habitat reminded me of these familiar hymn lyrics: Rock of Ages, cleft for me, let me hide myself in Thee. Those words express what many of us want when we encounter people with evil intentionspeople characterized by pride, cruelty, and a lack of regard for God (Ps. 94:4-7). When we are the target of someones wrongdoing, we can remember the testimony of the psalmist: The Lord has been my defense, and my God the rock of my refuge (v.22).
As our rock, God is dependable and strong. As our refuge, He can provide safety until problems pass. The psalmist reminds us: Under His wings you shall take refuge (Ps. 91:4). With God as our defender, we dont have to fear what others will do. We can trust that God will support us when trouble comes.
Thank You, God, for Your stable and unchanging
nature. Help us to hide ourselves in You
when trouble comes our way. Remind us that we
dont have to fight our own battles.
Refuge can be found in the Rock of Ages.
Read: Psalm 94:3-23

Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...more rain?
Still warm here, but overcast and I’m hoping for a breeze. I’ve been eaten alive by mosquitoes.

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT OUR TROOPS AND OUR BELOVED NATION!
The Star Spangled Banner Verse Four (Click)
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand Between their loved home and the war's desolation! Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation. Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto: "In God is our trust." And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
