God the Rock, source of our strength


Morning: Psalm 18:1-20; Isaiah 41:17-29; Ephesians 2:11-22
Evening: Psalm 18:21-50; Mark 2:1-12
God is the ‘rock’ – a strong protector who responds to our calls for help. God the rock is not soft, but expects our best efforts, loves honest dealing, and honours faithfulness. Lesser gods – popularity or power – will come to nothing; they may even bring us down. But Jesus helps those who call for aid to walk strongly again into a broad place of welcome, there to be built up as a dwelling place for God. For when God dwells in us, we are strong too, ready to attend to others as God has attended to us.
