SCHOOL BUS ROCK

Nestled in the heart of New Hampshire’s Highway 93 is the breathtaking refuge known as Franconia Notch, and in the midst of that oasis is a delightful canvas of forest, rock, and stream known as, “The Flume”.

Shortly before beginning your 3 ½ mile hike of up and down and all around, you come upon mass quantities of giant rocks that show tree roots growing in, on, around, and through them.  One rock in particular is literally the size of a typical yellow school bus. 

When you stand next to this giant you get a keen understanding of just how small you are compared to the stuff of nature—and more importantly, nature’s inventor—God.

Someone as big as God is fiercely capable of keeping you from the enemy’s wrath, when you decide to rest in His shade—and no peace can come close to equaling that.

King James Version (KJV)

Psalm 61

 1Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.
 2From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
 3For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.
 4I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.
 5For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.
 6Thou wilt prolong the king's life: and his years as many generations.
 7He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.
 8So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
