January 15
"In my distress I
called upon the Lord,
and cried out
to my God;
He heard my voice from
his temple,
and my cry came before
him, even to his ears."
Psalm
18:6
When in distress, many run to friends for counsel
and comfort, or to alcohol and drugs which only make the situation
worse. No, let us run to the Lord our creator who knows the number of
hairs on our head, who authored each one's DNA, who was there at
birth and even before, who kept us and protected us even in the days
before we came to know him.
The Lord our Creator alone is able
to make things right in our lives. His counsel will not be the
counsel we get from friends or experts, or the world system. His
counsel will be unique to our situation and will come from the wisdom
of his own heart. It will be the wisdom from heaven, not the wisdom
of the world. It will succeed, when all else fails.
vs
16,17
"He sent from above, he took me,
He drew me out of many waters.
He
delivered me from my strong enemy,
from those who hated me,
for they
were too strong for me."
There is no enemy or
power or demon from hell that can oppose him. He is Lord, the most
high God. And he cares about YOU.
