“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.”
Hebrews 13:8
The modern world is like a stormy sea, churning, boiling, ever-changing. In my lifetime it has changed many times over, and to be honest the world of now has little resemblance to the one I grew up in. Families are breaking up, institutions have been discredited and nobody can tell what the economy will be like in six months… the news is usually bad.
People usually want to find stability in life; something they can count on. Anxiety results when everything is changing and unpredictable. The polls tell us that the people are becoming restless and very unhappy with their leaders…
Now, more than ever Jesus provides us with what we so desperately need: Love that we can depend on, values that really mean something, a role model without a scandal, a safe harbor in troubled times.
Grab hold of Jesus! He is our Rock, our Salvation, our anchor!

Imagine that – a role model without a scandal!
Yes, it’s kind of old fashioned isn’t it?
Amen!
That picture is simply amazing! Did you take that?
I did… and thank you!
Amen to this “breath of fresh air” type of post!
Thanks!
And this is the ~ Good News ~ Amen :Y
Good News indeed!
Such a comfort! There is no where and no one else to go to to recalibrate and regain our bearings. Like the song THIS IS AMAZING GRACE says He turns our chaos into order.
Great song, great comment, too!
Yes!
I meant great song “-) lol
The rock of our salvation, written about in Psalm 18. Our God’s mercies endure forever, attested to even in Lamentations. How can we understand? I don’t know that we can, but we can only hold onto hope with this fact in our hearts.
Amen

Thank you for your encouraging post that brought to mind the lyrics to this familiar hymn: In Times Like These:
In times like these you need a Savior
In times like these you need an anchor;
Be very sure, be very sure
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
Chorus
This Rock is Jesus, Yes, He’s the One;
This Rock is Jesus, the only One!
Be very sure, be very sure
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
In times like these you need the Bible,
In times like these O be not idle;
Be very sure, be very sure
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
Chorus
This Rock is Jesus, Yes, He’s the One;
This Rock is Jesus, the only One!
Be very sure, be very sure
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
In times like these I have a Savior,
In times like these I have an anchor;
I’m very sure, I’m very sure
My anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
Chorus
This Rock is Jesus, Yes, He’s the One;
This Rock is Jesus, the only One!
Be very sure, be very sure
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!
Pretty well sums it up!
Amen and amen! What a wonderful thing to be able to lean on God, to have Him watching over us, comforting us and encouraging us in this crazy world we live in!
It’s a blessing for sure!
Such a great thought for all of us to remember! God’s word is timeless and stays the same throughout the ages. That’s so good to know!!
The True Light
Amen!
truly, the only rock that will stand fast. vw
