The Lord Is My Rock came into being because of jotting down thoughts that relate to God and his plan for our salvation, the loss of a loved one, relationships, bondage, our planet, etc. Over the years, the thoughts manifested into poetry, and, as if divinely guided, include photography and drawings. The mermaid on the cover symbolizes the soul, wandering alone in the sea of life. The soul finds a rock to rest upon in order to reflect upon creation and what it has to offer, as well as, to find safety from the dangers that lurk within the darkness of the world. The rock symbolizes Jesus Christ.
