In some places there is an iron ring or something similar. For example, at our composting plant. There, a chain is attached to the ring so that the plant is not entered outside the operating hours. So the ring serves as a stable element for fastening - in this case a chain. If this ring were not there, it would probably be difficult to fasten the chain in such a way that it would hold. The ring therefore provides the necessary stability and tensile strength. I have never experienced that such a ring - wherever attached - could be torn away. Our lives sometimes also depend on such stable anchor points. Something that holds, even when pressure or tearing comes from outside. Especially then. I believe, this is my conviction, that God offers us such a ring in our relationship with his Son Jesus. So not a life free of worry or fear or problems. But something that remains stable and holds in all this.
I wish you an extraordinary day!
