The Rock Wasn't Shaking!
Contributed by Dr. Larry Petton on Apr 2, 2022 (message contributor)
A passenger ship tragically capsized at sea. Many drowned, but one teenager was found clinging to a rock.
After he was rescued, someone asked him if he was terrified.
He responded by saying, “Yes, I was shaking all the time…but the rock I was holding onto wasn’t shaking!”
Psalm 18:2: “The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge.”
