Today's Verse: Psalm 121:1-2 (KJV)

Monday, April 25, 2005

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.
— Psalm 121:1-2 (KJV)

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Since God could speak into existence the universe, and since God knows our names and the number of the hairs on our head... surely we know that we can go to him for our help. Let's lift up our eyes and our hearts to El Shaddai, Lord God of the Mountains and know the Almighty sees our needs, hears our requests, and cares about our hearts.
