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 NLT

My help doesn't come from obtaining the latest and greatest Christian bestseller.

My help doesn't come from the loving hearts around me on any given Sunday.

My help doesn't come from church membership, even if it is what I consider the greatest church around.

My help doesn't come from a legacy of believing ancestors.

My help doesn't come from owning several Bibles.

And what I needed reminding of most this morning, my help doesn't come from the one whose reflection I see in the mirror each morning.

Oh, I tend to think it does. I carry the weight on my heart of believing it does. I appear to others, on most days, to be one that would be capable of the job.

But my help comes from my Lord, and from my Lord alone.
