Will your anchor hold?

Hey Everybody!

The Lord has really been doing a work in my life lately. Challenging the things I do, the music I listen to, and the books I read. The question that has really convicted me is "If the Lord would return right now would I be ashamed for Him finding doing what I'm doing?" Wow. This question hit me hard and I had to seriously evaluate what I was doing with my time. I've had to cut out some things that weren't easy to let go. But another question that came to my mind was... "I want a man who is totally dedicated to God... Isn't that what he is going to want? A woman who is totally dedicated to God who holds nothing back?" But then I want to change things just for my future husband but then the Lord asks me "If you are willing to change things for a mere man, why not me? Isn't that what it is supposed to be a life dedicated to me and not to a man?" This is just a glance into what the Lord has been showing me lately.

The Lord has really been impressing on me lately the shortness of life, the frailty of life, and making sure that when the Lord ends the life here on earth or returns to take his bride home that I will be ready. A song that was playing in my brothers car the other day really struck me. Here are the Lyrics.

In times like these you need a Savior
In times like these you need an anchor;
Be very sure, be very sure
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!

Chorus
This Rock is Jesus, Yes, He's the One;
This Rock is Jesus, the only One!
Be very sure, be very sure
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!

In times like these you need the Bible,
In times like these O be not idle;
Be very sure, be very sure
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!

Chorus
This Rock is Jesus, Yes, He's the One;
This Rock is Jesus, the only One!
Be very sure, be very sure
Your anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!

In times like these I have a Savior,
In times like these I have an anchor;
I'm very sure, I'm very sure
My anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!

Chorus
This Rock is Jesus, Yes, He's the One;
This Rock is Jesus, the only One!
I'm very sure, I'm very sure
My anchor holds and grips the Solid Rock!



Can you say that along with me? Is your anchor griping that solid rock? Where will you spend eternity Heaven or Hell? both are real no matter what you may say or think.
