Our Help

"God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble." Psalm 46:1 (NLT)

      God waits for us? In a figurative sense, He sits beside the phone and waits for us to call. I wonder if we are aware of this? If so, why don't we take advantage as often as we should? People certainly love to call for help when trouble abounds, and sometimes that's the best way God can truly get your attention. However, we are to consistently be in communication with God (1 Thess 5:17). 

       Stop and think for a moment... the creator of the universe is waiting to give you His undivided attention. How truly magnificent is that? Isn't that enough incentive to get on your knees and communicate your deepest desires to Him.

      Talk to Him! Let Him know what you need, and how you can be useful in helping others. Then and only then can you truly see Him as the place you go for shelter when your world is falling apart. He's promised to never leave us nor forsake us (Hebrews 13:5). Take Him at His word.
