"Lead me to the Rock that is higher than I."
Psalm 61:2
Psalm 61:2
These days in So. Cal., and in my neck of the woods, a "rolling stone" rocks the news--but I don't think it's got the "moves like Jaggar."
A rock weighing in at 340 tons, by dark of night makes a move through the Southland to its new "digs", the Los Angeles Co. Museum of Art (LACMA). Found in a quarry in Riverside Co., one will be able to view it this summer at the museum; an exhibit called "Levitated Mass", created by artist Michael Heizner http://www.lacma.org/art/exhibition/levitated-mass
Interesting.
The media contributes to the "rock and road show." Traveling approximately 8 miles a night, the sideline groupies do not take this for granite (pun intended), following its progress each night on the local news.http://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/LACMAs-Giant-Rock-Official-Move-Riverside-Glen-Avon-140899623.html
David, our Biblical editorialist also reported on a Rock. Follow his journey as you read the Psalms.
The Rock I call on doesn't move. It is not greatly shaken. My Rock is my strength, my refuge, my fortress (Psalm 18:2, 71:3).
He is my Rock and my salvation.(Psalm 62:6).
I remember, He is my Rock, my Redeemer (Psalm 78:35).
Its amazing to watch a rock of such great mass and the vehicle used to transport it, move a great distance.
Even more amazing; to allow THE ROCK to move in and through you on your own journey through the dark, creating in you, a museum piece worthy of His love.
Lord, you are the steadfast Rock on whom I cling. Blessed be the Lord, my Rock. Amen
P.S. As I write this, the LACMA rock is less than a mile from my house, waiting patiently until 11:00 tonight to start the move again. I saw it on my way home from work today.
Love these scriptures and I'm SO thankful that HE is our rock and fortress! Fantastic post!
ReplyDeleteTaking the every-day and making the connection with the Almighty, you always make me take time and think about all that is around me!
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI saw this leviathan right by your house. It was massive.
I enjoyed the references… the Lord is my Rock and my Redeemer. Amen!

Good, very good.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw this on the news last night, I was thinking "...if this rock will levitate over visitors, why don't they just levitate it over to the destination site?" Guess they can't really make it levitate. (haha)
