As is my practice, last night before going to bed, I read the evening selection from Daily Light on the Daily Path:
I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord. —PSA. 121:1,2.
As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth even for ever.
Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens. Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the Lord our God, until that he have mercy upon us. —Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
O our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee. —Mine eyes are ever toward the Lord; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net. —Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
Psa. 125:2. Psa. 123:1,2. -Psa. 63:7. II Chr. 20:12. -Psa. 25:15. -Psa. 124:8.
I should clarify that I turn to the Scriptures morning and evening, not because I am so holy and perfect, but because I am so needy in spirit (and other ways).
That was my Grandma’s favorite psalm. She grew up in an area surrounded by mountains, and, like you, she seemed to be always needing help. I always remember her when I hear this.
I read yesterday of Ezekiel in the valley of dry bones. the Lord asked him, Can these bones live again? And he rightly answered, Only you know! What a wondrous God we serve and trust and put our hope in, who can raise an army from dry bones. Surely, he can supply all our needs, physical, emotional and spiritual.
