Stable Places...

STABLE PLACES…There are seasons in our life when everything is going well and feels solid. Then there are seasons when the exact opposite is the order of the day. These are times when everything is shifting and feels like we’re standing on thin ice. And no matter how carefully we step we hear that eerie sound of the ice cracking beneath our feet and threatening to plunge us into the icy deep. Sound familiar? Ohhh the human search for a more solid ground to stand on continues…
“Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.” ~Psalm 61:2
The point of this verse is obvious, the solid ground we seek is out of our reach. It’s simply does not exist on our playing field. It is higher! The final truth in these few short words are however very encouraging. We can be led to these higher solid grounds. Walking with Christ may pass over a few ‘thin ice’ moments and shaky earthly circumstances, but all the while we standing on an unseen rock…His unfailing love for us. Wow, that changes everything. It may appear from an outsiders view that we are in a turbulent time, and yet to us we are walking in STABLE PLACES! ~verlon
