Help for the Day | Dec. 1st

  “Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears us up; God is our salvation.”

   Psalm 68:19

  Beloved, we all feel weighed down by cares and responsibilities—deadlines at work and meals at home. These demands can weary even the strongest among us. Yet, scripture reminds us that we are not meant to carry this load alone.

  There are also the unplanned emergencies of life, the unwanted flu, and the conflicts that arise with others. Not to mention the reality of the spiritual fight that we are in day to day. Where should our strength come from? Should we have hope for tomorrow?

  The Psalmist reminds us that God is our help in times of need. He has promised to keep us from the evil one, to supply our physical needs, to be the counselor of our heart, and the good Shepherd who restores our weary souls for His name's sake.

  Remember, the Lord daily sustains you and carries you. Rest in Him, knowing He is your salvation. Talk with the Father today about your concerns. Bring your burden to Him in light of the promises from Scripture. This will lift your weary heart.

In Christ Alone.
