MY HELP

Today's reading: Psalm 120-121

"I look up to the mountains--does my help come from there? My help comes from the Lord, who made the heavens and the earth!" Psalm 121:1-2 NLT

Where is it you are looking for help?

Strong friends?

Close family members? 

Your local church congregation?

The newest author?

An up and coming program?

Membership in a particular club/group/class?

Maybe, just maybe, you're looking deep within yourself for all the help you need. Your willpower. Your inner strength. Your talents.

Others have let you down. Didn't show up. Didn't come through. Didn't do what was asked of them.

Those closest to you have broken their promises. Their vows. Their word.

The world has knocked you down and depressed the breath out of you. Mentally. Physically, Emotionally.

You, we, I, won't find the help we need outside of the Lord.

The One who created us helps us.

The One who made this world we live in helps us.

The One who sent His one and only Son helps us.

Why spend our time, spin our wheels, exhaust ourselves, looking for help anywhere else?

Our help comes from the Lord, who made the heavens and the earth!
