my help

LAND19 (3)Psalm 121

I confess to you, brothers and sisters, that I am angry right now.  Circumstances have come together to bring stress to me and my family, and I feel overwhelmed.  My first response, when I read a psalm like this, is to say “well, that doesn’t help.”  But I realize that the psalmist is going through the same thing.  He was looking to the hills, and wondering where his help was going to come from.  He’s have a bad day, just like me.  The fact is, his conclusion is the only one that makes sense.  When I see just how complicated the mess I am in is, only the creator can help. 

LORD, even though I don’t feel it, I know that you are my help.  I trust in you.  There is no one else that I can rely on.
