THE STEADFAST ROCK

Anchor your faith to the solid Rock of Ages

Where the winding road turns straight and narrow

Follow the path beside living waters of grace

To a place apart that overcomes life’s sorrows

Where songs of praise rise up over so much noise

And the Good News redeems wandering hearts

Making the unworthy worthy of limitless joy

Peace being the great reward Christ’s love imparts

Claim the victory over sin’s dreadful curse

Seeking forgiveness through His merciful gift alone

Then share this hope to the ends of the earth

Until we find rest at the foot of our Savior’s throne!

“Oh come, let us sing to the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!”

Psalm 95:1 ESV

I have been writing poetry since I was a teenager, but it wasn’t until a few of years ago that my writing became more spiritual and at the same time more prolific. As I shared my poetry with my wife, Hannah, and a few good friends, they encouraged me to place the poems in book form. My first book endeavor was “Because Of Him”, published in 2017. After hearing Sammy Murimi, the director of Share International Inc., speak at our church, I decided that the proceeds from that book would be donated to Share. In 2018, Hannah and I were privileged to go to Turkanaland in Kenya on a mission trip with Share. It was a life-changing experience for us both. Some of the inspiration from that trip is expressed in my second book, “His Cup Pours Out”. I include scripture verses with my poems because most of the poems I have written were inspired by reading God’s Word. I hope that as you visit this blog, you will meditate on the scripture verses and write down your prayers and thoughts for the week. My goal for this project has always been that God would be glorified! Robert M Hinnen
