Unmoveable



Seems as though pain and sorrow are winning.....
Where are you Jesus?
Cancer takes another one.....

Where are you Jesus?
Car wrecks lay hold of bodies and twist them beyond recognition....
Where are you Jesus?

Disease steals years away from our loved ones....
Where are you Jesus?

Addiction flows in the veins of our sons and daughters....
Where are you Jesus?

Unless you stop and listen...
I mean really listen....
Not with your ears, but with your hearts...
You will miss His voice.

"I've been here all along," is what He will say.
"But there is so much death and destruction."
"You have to look beyond..."


I want neat packaged answers when I ask "Why?"
I want to be able to understand.
What I know to be truth is that me, a finite being, could never understand HIM, the Infinite God."

I choose to lean on the words written in the book of Job ----
Job 13:15 -  Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him........

So life truly becomes a celebration of the little things we experience.
It also has those moments of great pain and sorrow. 
Those times when our situations and circumstances seem so monumental that we will never get beyond them. When I turn To Christ in such times, He lovingly leads me through the darkness. 
He understands....
He's the Rock that will not be moved.
Life is change.
Jesus is stability.
Life is emotional highs and lows...
Jesus is stability.
Life isn't fair....
Jesus is that anchor that keeps me from going over the edge.

He's the Rock that will not be moved.
Praise God for this!

God on you....
