The God of my rock; in Him will I trust. 2 Samuel 22:3a
Recently I read an article on the Spanish island of La Gomera, which is part of the Canary Islands. What captured my attention most was the author’s comment claiming it to be the quietest place on earth and that he had found “the perfect refuge of calm.” I knew what he meant, but truly the only real calm that will ever satisfy the longing of the human soul is found in the person of Jesus Christ, the true Prince of Peace. Dear brother or sister in Christ, I trust this is the reality of your heart; that you know something of the Saviour’s sheltering side, of the peace and refuge that is ours in Christ, even while the storms of life may rage all around us. —Jerry Proctor
The Lord’s our Rock, in Him we hide, a shelter in the time of storm,
O Rock divine, O Refuge dear, a shelter in the time of storm.—I. D Sankey
