CREATED TO LEAN ON GOD

 







CREATED=TO LEAN ON GOD


LORD KNOWS we all

Have enough problems

In this world=

ALL OF US


Particularly with Covid and

The racial and political divisions

In this world=

We were CREATED

TO LEAN ON GOD


"I am sunk

In the abysmal swamp

Where there is

NO FOOTHOLD=


I have reached

The watery dephths-

The flood OVERWHELMS ME"                                                                                       Psalm 69:3


IF you have lived

LONG ENOUGH=we all have

Gone through periods

Where life

Seems to overwhelm us


When we come to

THE END

Of our very own capacity=

We CRY out to God

To HELP US


Sometimes it is

So difficult

To HOLD it all together=

Sometimes=no matter what

We are up against

It just seens like

Our life=is FALLING APART


CREATED TO LEAN ON GOD!=

Crying out to God

For HELP


"Trust in the Lord

With all your heart

And LEAN not

On your own understanding"                                                                                             Proverbs 3:5


"I will strengthen you

And HELP YOU-

I will uphold you

With my righteous right hand"                                                                                    Isaiah 41:10


"Immediately=the boy's father

Exclaimed=

'I do believe=

HELP ME overcome my unbelief'"                                                                                   Mark 9:24


So if you are

At the end

OF YOUR ROPE=

Don't be ashamed

Don't be afraid

To CRY OUT to God

FOR HELP

We have all been there!


Like the psalmist

We can pray

For a time of FAVOR


We can just know

That God is

WORKING in our best interests

That he is


Working to put us

BACK TOGETHER


"Peter turned and saw

That the disciple=whom Jesus loved

Was following

(This was the one =who LEANED back

Against Jesus at the Last Supper and said........)"                                                         John 21:20


So take a DEEP BREATH=

Let the Father God

REVIVE YOU=LEAN ON HIM


He is putting your priorities

And your passions

Back in orde


WE were CREATED=TO

LEAN ON GOD

When we go through difficult times


The HOLY FATHER!-

Gives us constant HELP and KINDNESS

As does the Lord Jesus

In their name
