Rocky outcrop Barrington NSW

 

My Rock

This large rocky outcrop is part of The Bucketts in Barrington NSW. Like many others, it brings to mind David’s words in Psalm 62:1,2:

Truly my soul finds rest in God; my salvation comes from him.Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken. 

There are several verses where David refers to God as his “rock”. In 2nd Samuel 22:3 he speaks to Him as “my stronghold, my refuge and my saviour”.

We too can find refuge, strength and safety in Him.

Paul says,”…we who have fled to Him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us. This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. (Hebrews 6:18,19).

Hope in what God has promised can bring us rest and refuge.
