Calling for help

Friends,

Life's daily battles often lead us to look for help, for allies. We determine that these struggles can be overcome with "a little help from our friends." But is that the right path?

Psalm 124:2-3
If it had not been the LORD who was on our side,
When men rose up against us,
Then they would have swallowed us alive,
When their wrath was kindled against us;

It is critical that, when we seek out allies, that we realize that there is truly only one Ally that can be effective. Worldly friends might make us feel better for a time, but the help that comes from Christ will bring everlasting results.

When you are tempted to cry out to your natural family or to your circle of friends, remember that it is the LORD that we should be calling upon. Get on His side and find safety in His Name.

Be encouraged, Jose
