A barnacle clings to a solid surface with refusal to let go. Our faith is in the Lord. He is our Steadfast Immovable Rock. Psalm 62:2 says, “He only in my rock and my salvation; He is my defense; I shall not be greatly moved.”

In 1997 I bought an old mobile in a well established mobile park for seniors. One of my new neighbors made a comment something like this: if ever one of these mobiles caught fire, the whole place would burn down.

I was the first mobile on the right as one entered the park. I had just learned a new way of warfare. One night it was tested. I was awakened in the night with red strobing lights circling on my ceiling. 

I crept out of bed and went to the front room. I bent down to look out my window. Across from me a ball of fire plumed up. A mobile across from me and down two was on fire. Fear gripped my heart.
