My Help

My Help

The psalmist writes,

“I lift up my eyes to the hills— 

where does my help come from? 

My help comes from the LORD, 

the Maker of heaven and earth.”

                                            Psalm 121:1,2.

Someone a long time ago told me that hard times, bad times, will either push someone toward God or away from Him.
Keeping ones faith in God in bad times shows who truly loves God.
Thus my question to you the reader. If you claim to be a follower of Christ Jesus, do you truly trust God?
Please think about it.

Blessed is the one

Blessed is the one
The Psalmist states,
“Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God, the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them—the LORD, who remains faithful forever. Psalm 146:5-6.
Where is your trust? Is your trust in yourself, in your own strength,  in the government, or in God?
I have been blessed with several incredible pastors and biblical teachers over my now sixty-five plus years on this earth. Pastors and teachers that have helped me lay a spiritual foundation for my life.
What they taught me at the time seemed at times somewhat academic. Still slowly quite often without me realizing it I put the teachings to work in my life.
Years later when I received a cancer diagnosis and later blood clots on my lungs that almost took my life. Those teachings gave me the peace I needed to weather the storm.
The psalmist states,
“Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God, the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them—the LORD, who remains faithful forever. Psalm 146:5,6.
I can honestly say I have found these words of the Psalmist to be true. God has remained faithful to me.
That being said I know during these unprecedented times amid this pandemic I know God will be faithful to all who trust in Him.
Thus my question to you is. Is your trust truly in God?
Please think about it.
