Help Is At Hand (Psalm 124:8)

There are some who claim to be self-sufficient but there comes a time in the lives of all people when, if they are honest, they will admit to needing assistance of one sort or another. It is a sad fact of life, however, that there are some unfortunate souls who have no family or close friends. As a result, when a need arises, they feel completely alone and helpless.

The Psalmist’s affirmation that “our help is in the name of the Lord” was no idle comment or platitude. He knew from experience that God watched over him and, as He had promised, would not fail nor forsake him and would be with him always. This promise, though made centuries ago, is as relevant today as it was then. It is for you. Whatever problem or difficulty may confront you, no matter what the circumstances may be, the living Christ is at your side waiting for you to turn to him. Do not fret when life becomes difficult. Confide in your Master and seek his help. He will not disappoint you.
