The Rock

Psalm 18:46 NIV: The LORD lives! Praise be to my Rock! Exalted be God my Savior!

I fondly remember a camping trip that my family and my friend´s family went on shortly after my friend had surrendered her life to Christ. We had been walking along a road until she came across a large rock. I will never forget the way she looked, standing up on that rock, singing praises to God. Since that time, when I ask her how she´s doing, I sometimes ask her if she´s "standing on the Rock." There is nothing on earth like standing on the Rock. As our hearts are focused on Jesus, and overflow with His joy, we cannot help but erupt with offerings of praise to Him. For some of us, it has been too long since we have (at least within our hearts), stood on the Rock of Christ and praised Him wholeheartedly. How truly wonderful that we do not have to wait another day, or even for a camping trip. We can ask Jesus to lift us up today, plant our feet on the Rock, and fill our hearts with His praise-bringing joy once more.

Speak the Truth Even If Your Voice Shakes

“The word of the LORD came to me, saying, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” “Alas, Sovereign LORD,” I said, “I do not know how to speak; I am too young.” But the LORD said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am too young.’ You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you,” declares the LORD. Then the LORD reached out his hand and touched my mouth and said to me, “I have put my words in your mouth. See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant.” Jeremiah 1:4-9
