Woah!
This is so cool. This is a sign from the creator himself. This is a very neat experience and a well written piece. I am glad you have this rock. Thank you for sharing!

Thanks Haylee, for the very lovely review and words. This rock still has me baffled twenty years later. Since we are the only ones who have ever built on this property, (it was a hayfield first) means that nobody could have left it here. So I tend to agree 100% with you.
Comment from SimianSavant
That's a pretty cool looking rock. It also looks like a color inverted hot cross bun. Did you try biting it? Just one small edit: the semicolon should be a comma. Thanks for the read!

Thanks so much for the very lovely review and words. This rock still has me baffled twenty years later. Since we are the only ones who have ever built on this property, (it was a hayfield first) means that nobody could have left it here. I never bit into it, but like to think it was a message from God!
Thanks once again! And I will go on and edit the mistake. Thanks for catching that.
Comment from robyn corum
Dear Mystery Writer,
How cool is that?!! But how big is the rock? This picture gives absolutely no idea. It could be absolutely gigantic or you may have just zoomed in and completely fooled us. (I don't mean intentionally.) So that the rock may only be a wee tiny thing.
It is a gorgeous thing. If I had found it, it would absolutely go straight onto my mantle, I'm sure. It does seem to be a treasure and a great visual reminder of our faith and the blessings in Christ. Wow.
Thanks for sharing! (I hope nothing I said sounded offensive - didn't mean it that way.)

Thank you so very much Robyn. This rock stands only about 8 inches tall.
So not real big, but still baffles me to the day how it got where we found it,
It couldn't have been left by others as we built on a piece of the family farm, which was a hayfield for a couple centuries. Anyway I do appreciate your very kind comments and never took it wrong, as I think your comments were lovely. : )
Comment from GARY MACLEAN
What an artefact! What a find. You can take it no other way then how your one sentence statement says it. The Lord was sending you a message that he is there, and you are being protected.
Very nice.

Thank you so much Gary, as it still means as much to me as it did twenty years ago when we found it. I'm still baffled but take great comfort in knowing that He is behind it. Thanks again for you awesome review and caring comments.
Comment from Beck Fenton
What a blessing! I love rocks and this is certainly a unique one and "cements" your give of salvation through the cross. I, too, would proudly display this rock of faith.
Good job!

Thank you so much Beck, for your lovely review of my rock. I just measured and it stands about 8 inches high, and even after 20 years, it still baffles me but gives great comfort in believing that it was crafted from the Almighty.
I have heard others say that it may have been left by other owners, but we are the only ones who ever lived here because this was a hayfield landscape to build our house on a small 2 acres among many on our farmland.
Thank you again my friend, for your lovely review.
Comment from LateBloomer
Hi Debi, what a beautiful sign that you and your family are loved by Him.
I'm so glad that you took a photo of it. It's now a sacred family heir loom.
Jesus is our rock. Well done. Thank you for sharing. Keep the blue waters flowing. LateBloomer

Comment from Beri Bee
What a treasure to find a natural formation reminding you and many of the faith that is represented by a cross! I'd be thrilled too! Your poem speaks joy that comes off the page. The expression "from out of nowhere" makes it feel very powerful! Thanks!

Thank you Beri for your review and comments! Twenty years later I am still baffled by this awesome rock, as I truly believe it was a gift from God, as nobody has ever lived on this land before we built here. Thank you again for the review.

You are welcome! It?s an amazing memento!

Mystery writer: excellent witness to the world with the Rock with the cross. People witness to Native Americans in the east coast with colored rocks with crosses. They believed in God and the Great Spirit. God can talk to us even with rocks. ******************** flylikeaneagle

You my dear are so very sweet, kind and gracious! Thank you for the lovely review and six stars for my rock poem, that still baffles me to this day, but I love it as much as the day we found it. Thank you again as I am so appreciative of your generous stars and review!

Thank you so much Harmony, as you are so very kind. This rock still baffles me, even twenty years after we found it under the deck. It truly reminds me daily that Jesus is my rock.
