“6. Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off. 7. Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me; thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of thine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me. 8. The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth forever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.”
Sometimes life can seem like a mountain. Mountains are beautiful and peaceful. A lot of Christians like the looks of a mountain, but the idea of climbing it don’t really interest them. Only by the help of God can a Christian find strength in climbing the mountain of life. Some days you feel wore out, some days you feel like you want to quit and return down to the bottom. There is a big problem with that, God didn’t design us to go down hill, He designed us to go up. If you talked to a mountain climber or elk hunter they would probably tell you that going down hill is the hardest on your joints. Though strengthening your muscles can be painful at times, it will only make you better and stronger. God doesn’t put you on mountains to fail, He puts you on mountains to be better and stronger for Him. Don’t let weariness wear you out! You may seem like your at a place in your life where things are very difficult, but don’t start down hill, that would be the worse thing for you. Too many Christians start down hill, but its only because they put their Bible down. The Word of God is alive today, but you’ll never continue your strengthening if you put it down and stop reading it. Galatians 6:9 “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap if we faint not.” Psalms tells us that God will perfect that which concerneth us, but you must keep going! God is here to help you! Don’t trust in yourself, trust in Him! Sometimes your job seems to tough, or maybe your marriage, even your ministry, but you must keep the greatest commandment: “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.” God is not leading you to failure! Do you feel like your failing? Could it be that God is not the one leading you today? Let God be God in your life today! You will never know how God is leading you if you don’t allow His Word to guide you! Trust Him!
