My Rock And My Fortress

The last castle Brian, our son Daniel and I saw in Germany was the Burg Meersburg Castle.

 

 

It is the oldest inhabited castle in all of Germany, built around 630.



 

Located on a rocky outcropping, 440 metres above sea level, this castle has a fabulous view of the lower city of Meersburg and Lake Constance.

 

 

Of course, it is not a royal palace, but rather a fortress to protect and shelter people from their enemies.



 

As God's children, our rock and fortress in the Lord Jesus Christ!

 

 

"The Lord is my rock, my fortress, my saviour;

my God is my rock,

in whom I find protection.

He is my shield,

the power that saves me,

and my place of safety.

"The Lord is good,

a strong refuge

when trouble comes.

He is close to those

who trust in Him."

and my fortress,

my tower of safety,

and I take refuge in Him."

He alone is my refuge,

my place of safety;

and my salvation,

my fortress

where I will not be shaken."
