Don't Let Go!

Our Thoughts:

Each of us have been met with things that we thought we'd never be able to stand or get over. We are humans and humans tend to look to themselves for help. We want to be self-sufficent, and have control over all the aspects of our lives. It's hard to say, I need help, and then ask for it.

I remember trying to help my children when they were young and hearing many times, "I can do it!" It didn't matter if the task was too big, they could 'still do it', or so they thought. But, as parents, we stood our ground, and finally helped the child accomplish what they had tried by themselves.

Spiritually, we need help, at times. We need to be able to say, Lord, I need you more now than I've ever needed you. Life isn't as easy as I thought, and I'm unable to control my life. We don't need to be ashamed to ask, and go another route. We need to hold fast to God, lean on His power to help us through terrible times. The enemy comes at us from all sides, and we need the armor of God to protect us from the enemy. 'With God all things are possible'. [Matthew 19:26]

God's Thoughts:

1 Thessalonians 3:8 For now we live, if ye stand fast in the Lord.

Our Cup:

Heavenly Father, often, it seems easier to give up than to ask for help. Teach us to call on your name, to hold fast to you in times of trouble. Without you, life would be so hard. We give you thanks for being there even when we get lax. We give you praise. In Jesus name, I pray. Amen.
