I praise God for the realization that we CAN RISE ABOVE the challenging times in our lives! However, we MUST take the time to seek God's Face and rest with Him! It's up to us to NOT allow these times to be our main focus.
I sometimes have trouble asking for help from friends - much less from my Lord - even when I
desperately need help. Today's reading and scriptures are wonderful
reminders that it's o.k. to ask our Lord for His help. What was most
reassuring was that we can say, "Help me, Jesus" thousands of times a
day and our Lord will meet us and draw us back to Him.
The
story of Peter in the scripture from Matthew 14 is an interesting one
in that he was a man of great faith. However, when Jesus asked Peter to
come to Him across the lake, it got really windy and Peter got scared.
That's when He said, "Lord, save me!" Have you had times that you have
had to cry out with a great need? During the "mountains" that we all have to climb, how blessed it is to know that we can ask our Lord for help - and He will hear us!
