Spiritual Reflection

May 2025

Uluru, Australia

 

                                                                                                       

Our Rock

Uluru is a massive sandstone monolith in the heart of Australia’s “Red Centre”, 3.6km long. 1.9 kms wide and 348m high. It is an awesome part of God’s creation and a special place.

We often refer to someone close to us as our “rock” because we feel they are “solid”; we depend on them and draw our strength from them, and they are always there in our time of need.

God is also spoken of as our rock:

Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD GOD is an everlasting rock. Isaiah 26:4

We are asked to trust Him. And we can trust Him more than we can trust any person.

But perhaps there are things which have happened in your life where you feel God has let you down and you can’t understand why He has allowed them to happen.

Corrie Ten Boom, who survived interment in concentration camps in World War II because her family harboured Jews in their home in Holland, wrote the following:

“God makes no mistakes. Everything looks like a confused piece of embroidery work, meaningless and ugly. But that is the underside. Some day we shall see the right side and shall be amazed and thankful.” (from ‘A Prisoner and Yet’)

Let us not lose our faith or our trust in our Rock.

For, “the one who endures to the end will be saved”. (Matthew 24:13)
