Listen from:
A young girl had been brought to trust in Christ through hearing Duncan Matheson, the Scottish evangelist. However, she got into doubt through occupation with her feelings and experiences.
“I thought I was on the Rock, and was happy, but my faith seems to have moved,” said the girl in great distress.
“Does the Rock move, Annie?” asked the quaint but godly man, who had much experience in dealing with souls.
“Oh, no, Sir, He doesn’t move!”
“Well then, never mind your feelings; they are not your Saviour. Say, ‘Thou art my Rock,’ and sing On Christ the solid Rock I stand, All other ground is sinking sand.
“Acquaint now thyself with Him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee.” Job 22:2121Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee. (Job 22:21)
