On Christ the Solid Rock I Stand

His wife said it best, "Christ is the Rock for me... and THAT is where I am standing." Before I heard anything, I saw it on the news. The pastor of the church where a large percentage of our Christian students go reported a robbery attempt in which 2 males attacked him resulting in some pretty good knife wounds. Yesterday, he confessed that after inflicting the wounds on himself he had fabricated the story and now he is facing charges of false reporting that could land him some jail time and a pretty hefty fine. His wife leads my Bible study. I haven't seen her yet, and I can't imagine how she is handling it but meanwhile I am left with students who are confused, frustrated, heart broken and feel lied to. This is a good reminder that Christ NEEDS to be our Rock, our Foundation that will never crumble. I have said it a hundred times and I will say it probably a thousand more. Humans will fail us 99 out of 100 times but CHRIST will NEVER fail us. People need to stop exalting spiritual leaders and placing them on pedestals and realize that they are human too. It's funny, there were four news stories on the 6:00 news yesterday that were dealing with Spiritual leaders who had failed. I am reminded that their sin is no different than mine... mine's just not plastered on the front of every newspaper. Thank GOD!!
All I have for now... k bye!
