What shall I write today Lord
Of Your love and guidance
The word rock
Comes to mind
A thing of beauty
Maybe not
But the scripture speaks
Of miracles
And gives meaning
To the rock
Rock..Solid in faith
Build your house upon it
Be thee steadfast as a Rock

Petrified minerals
As old as time
As Solid as your name
A body of matter
That is stable and firm
Like your church
Dependable as your promise
To move back and forth
To sway, only as a babe
In a mother's arms
Poetry in motion
As deliberate
As the day
The stone rolled away

Dear Regina - Who would have ever thought that something as ordinary and even as ugly, as a rock, could be made so beautiful.  What a wonderful message, presented in such a beautiful way.  Thanks, Bonnie

He is our ROCK...immovable!

The stone rolled away

Intriguing!  I relished the depth of your ideas.  The rock moves! but only deliberately according to the sovereignty of God.  Yes the stone rolls, but only to reveal an empty grave, the testimony of a risen Christ!  How beautifully written as well.  Thankyou!
