 OUR ROCK OF PROTECTION

"From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy."

Psalms 61: 2, 3
King James Version

Rev. Augustus Toplady wrote a beautiful hymn about our precious Saviour "Rock of Ages". Thank God for Jesus, our Rock of Ages.

"Rock of Ages, cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee, let the water and the blood, from thy woulnded side which flowed, be of sin the double cure; save from wrath and make me pure.

Not the labors of my handscan fulfill thy law's demands; could my zeal no respite know, could my tears forever flow, all for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and thou alone.

While I draw this fleeting breath, when mine eyes shall close in death, when I soar to worlds unknown, see thee on thy judgment throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee."

Thank You, Jesus, for protecting us, for never leaving us and for dying on the cross for us. I love You so much and appreciate all You have done for me. I look forward to the happy and joyous day when I will have the privilege of seeing You face to face and being with You for eternity.
