What Is Your Anchor in the Storm?
　
　
"Does your church sing any hymns that are honest about suffering, uncertainty, and despair?" A wise theologian once asked that question, and his words challenged hymn writers Matt Boswell and Matt Papa. They set out to write a song, like many of the great hymns of old, that would be realistic about the pain of life in this fallen world while expressing the confidence we still have in Christ. The result: "Christ the Sure and Steady Anchor." After the challenges of the past year, this hymn seems even more timely. It reminds us that Christ will never change, never forsake us, no matter how fierce the winds and waves. His cross is our "ballast of assurance," forever proving that nothing can separate us from his love (Romans 8:38). Even in the storms of life, we can sing—because our Anchor will not be removed.
