An Anchor for the Soul

However fervent our first love for the Lord, we are all prone to drift. Our hearts can grow cold and our faith become a mere formality before we've even realized. Thankfully there's an answer, and it's the same regardless of our feelings or situation: we need to stare long and hard at the profundity of Christ's love poured out for us on the cross. But it's often helpful to have a guide come alongside us, and that's exactly what Paul Mallard does in his exploration of how Jesus fulfills Psalm 22. He reminds us that our joy in Christ comes not from performance but from proximity. This is the anchor our souls need to provide stability in the raging tempests of life.
