"I lift up my eyes to the mountains — where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth." - Psalm 121:1-2This verse was the reading for the day in a Bible calendar I have. What a wonderful reminder of where our strength and power really comes from.
It is easy to think it comes from power, prestige, wealth or fame. That is what we can see and what our world thinks really matters, but that is not where our help really comes from.
As people of faith we know our help comes from the Lord.
To add one more thing: our help from the Lord does not come as a result of OUR great faith. No, it comes as a result of the GREAT ONE we place our faith in.
May that be a wonderful reminder to you of God's blessing and faithfulness.
Merry Christmas!
Faith in God, and self - is productive. Faith without "works" is futile, One must get in the program - to realize the benefits.
ReplyDeleteGreat reminder at a much needed time. In a time of illness, when our faith seems so weak,so good to be reminded that it is all about Him,and the care for His people.How wonderful to know that He is there for all who will accept Him. HSM
