I will not be shaken!!!

My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from Him. He alone is my rock and salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken. Psalms 62:1-2

August 23, 2011 approximately 2 pm I was sitting in the TV room with my sister-in-law and my son visiting when the room started shaking. What was so unusual was this room had a concrete floor so we were unsure what was going on till I got a phone call from my granddaughter telling us about the earthquake in Virginia. So we proceeded to watch the local news channel to see what was going on.

As I was hearing how everyone was shaken by the tremor I was at peace because I  knew who my rock was. I had to stand and believe that He alone is my fortress and no harm or danger could come my way. I am a faith believer and I have to stand on the Word of God. What are we standing on as a nation? Is he our rock, our salvation and our fortress?

This nation was built on Christian principles by our forefathers who knew who they were in Christ and who Christ was to them. They also knew that without God we could do nothing on our own.

Where have these principles gone to and where have our morals and values disappeared to? Have we thrown everything this country was based on out the window with the dishwater? Prayer was taken out of our schools when I was a little girl. I remember the day when we could take our Bibles to school and the Pledge of Allegiance was mandatory. We as a nation need to get back to the basics and back to the one who loved us first, back to our creator. We need to know who He is and what He stands for.

He is not a God of confusion so why do we not understand that He alone is the one to look to for everything in our lives.

Where do you stand with God? Are you living a life that is pleasing to Him?

So if the events of today has you shaken, your foundation may not be as rock solid as you would like it to be. So go ahead and ask Jesus to be your rock and fortress, ask Him to come into your life and accept you into the family. Its that easy no fancy words just ask for forgiveness for anything that you have done that has not been pleasing to Him. He has a gifts for you a clean and pure heart and eternal life with Him. Its your choice.
