ON THEIR HANDS THEY WILL BEAR YOU UP,
LEST YOU STRIKE YOUR FOOT AGAINST A STONE.
PSALM 91:12
Have you ever felt like you can’t take another step? Life’s problems overwhelm you, and getting out of bed seems like the hardest thing to do. I have. My darkest moments have found me on the floor of my prayer closet, unable to stand. At those times, I cry out to the Lord, asking Him for the strength to keep going, and He always answers. God’s angels pick me up and help me to persevere despite all the odds. And they will do the same for you.
Our summer began with the tragic loss of the flower girl from our wedding in an accident. Only twenty, her bright light now shines from heaven. Moving through the grief, we’ve needed angels to lift us up and keep us from stumbling. Knowing she now lives in heaven, wrapped in the arms of Jesus, comforts us, but the reality of her loss requires divine assistance. And God gives it, sending His angels to bear us up in their hands.
God never intended for us to live life without His assistance. In the Lord’s divine plan, He designed angels to help us when needed. Trusting in the Creator’s plan means relying on His support, leaning into Him for strength, and not trying to do things on our own steam. God provides our needs, supports our efforts, and helps us persevere, sometimes with His angels carrying us.
Application:
Angels bear us up in their hands.
Prayer:
Lord, thank You for Your celestial beings that watch over us, protect us, and carry us when needed. Please help us lean into You more, trusting You with our every need, knowing You will provide. In all things, let us honor and serve You well.
IJNIP. Amen
