LOOK UP!!!

Read: Psalm 121

Bible in a Year: Nehemiah 1.€“3; Acts 2:1-21

My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
Psalm 121.2

In a park near our home there'€™s a trail I enjoy walking on. Along one section there'€™s a panoramic view of red sandstone rocks in the Garden of the Gods with the majestic 14,115-foot Pikes Peak behind them. From time to time, though, I find myself walking that section occupied with some problem and looking down at the wide, smooth trail. If no one is around, I may stop and say aloud, €œDavid, look up!

The psalms known as €œSongs of Ascents€ Ps. 120.134 were sung by the people of Israel as they walked the road up to Jerusalem to attend the three annual pilgrim festivals. Psalm 121 begins, €œI will lift up my eyes to the hills. From whence comes my help?€ v. 1. The answer follows, €œMy help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth
v. 2. The Creator is not an aloof being, but a companion who is always with us, always awake to our circumstances vv. 3-7, guiding and guarding our journey through life €œfrom this time forth, and even forevermore€ v. 8.

Along life'€™s path, how we need to keep our eyes fixed on God, our source of help. When we'€™re feeling overwhelmed and discouraged, it's all right to say aloud, €œLook up!€
I look up to You, Father, for You are the One who can help me. Thank You for the joys and trials in my life right now. I'€™m grateful that I never walk alone.

Keep your eyes on God your source of help.
