A
reminder for today
I
look up to the mountains—does my help come from there? My help comes from the
LORD, who made heaven and earth! He will not let you stumble; the one who
watches over you will not slumber. Indeed, he who watches over Israel never
slumbers or sleeps. The LORD himself watches over you! The LORD stands beside
you as your protective shade. The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon at
night. The LORD keeps you from all harm and watches over your life. The LORD
keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever. (Psalm 121)
This is such an awesome Psalm. The words so nicely fit
our current theme. Where does my help come from? As this week unfolds and the
burdens life throws at us seem to increase and our strength seems so powerless
against the challenges that waits around every corner. I guess we often look up
at those mountains with this question - Where does my help come from?
Today, more than ever before, I confirm that my help
comes from the Lord who made heaven and earth. There is no other like Him and
none that can compare to His majesty. Like a father He holds us in His hands
keeping us safe and shielding us from the arrows of the enemy. We are His
children and He Himself watches over us. This wonderful creator-father never slumbers
and never sleeps as His eyes are fixed on us so that we will not be harmed. He stands
beside us walking every step and knowing what we are facing and what we are going
through. He knows our pain and our heartache as He wipes the tears from our
eyes. He sees our flaws and smiles at our mistakes for He already gave His life
so that we can be free from our human nature.
As we stand up today let us proclaim that our help comes
from the Lord and there is nothing in this world that can hurt us. Not the sun
nor the moon, meaning that there is nothing the light of the sun reveals or anything
that hides in the shadows of the night that could harm us. The Lord our God
watches over us.
Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus
Cheers
