“President Ronald Reagan used to tell a story about a man who fell off a cliff and, at the last minute as he was falling, he grabbed hold of a shrubby bush. As he dangled on the side of the precipice, he was filled with terror and called out toward heaven, ‘Is there anyone up there?’ A calm and powerful voice came out of the sky, saying, ‘Yes, there is.’ The tourist pleaded, ‘Can you help me? Can you please help me?’ The calm voice replied, ‘Yes, I can. Simply let loose of the bush. Have faith, and everything will turn out fine.’ There was a tense pause, then the tourist yelled, ‘Is there anyone else up there?’
“Whatever your circumstance, no matter how dire, you can trust the Lord. You can turn loose and let Him handle your problems. Romans 10:11 says that anyone who trusts in Him will never be disappointed.”
-Rev. Mark H. Creech
