Trust In The Lord
|
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart
And lean not unto thine own understanding.
Proverbs 3:5
The story is told of a mountain climber,
Who was desperate to conquer
Mount Aconcagua in Argentina.
He initiated his climb after years of preparation.
Wanting all of the glory for himself,
He went up alone.
He started climbing and it was becoming later,
And later. He did not prepare for camping
So he decided to keep on going.
Soon it got dark......very dark.
Night fell with heaviness at a very high altitude.
Visibility was zero. Everything was black.
There was no moon, and dark clouds covered the stars.
As he was climbing a ridge,
He reached about a 100 meters from the top,
He slipped and fell.
Falling rapidly to the bottom he could
Only see blotches of darkness passing by.
He felt a terrible sensation
Of being sucked down by gravity.
He kept falling....and in those anguishing
Good and bad memories passed through his mind.
He thought for sure that he would die.
But then he felt a jolt around his waist that
Almost tore him in half. Yes!!
Like any good mountain climber he had
Staked himself with a long rope.
In those moments of stillness,
Suspended in the air with the
Rope tied around his waist
He had no other choice but to shout,
"HELP ME GOD"
"HELP ME!" All of a sudden,
Just like the good God that He is,
The man heard the answer to his prayer.
A deep voice from heaven spoke.....
"What do you want me to do?"
"SAVE ME", he pleaded.
"Do you REALLY believe I can save you?"
OF COURSE, MY GOD!"
God replied,
"Then according to your faith, cut the rope."
There was another moment of silence and stillness.
The man gasped and just held tighter to the rope.
The next day,
The rescue team said they found a frozen
Mountain climber hanging strongly to a rope.
TWO FEET OFF THE GROUND.
Do we really believe that God can save us?
I know, the rope is tangible.
We can feel the rope.
We think we know what our
Chances are with the rope.
But, God has great and marvelous things for us.
What ever it is, why don't you let it go?
CUT THE ROPE AND SIMPLY!
TRUST IN HIM....
