Our Help In All Times!
"Lord, you have been our dwelling place in
all generations. Before the mountains were
brought forth, or ever You had formed the
earth and the world, even from everlasting
to everlasting, You are God."
Psalm 90: 1-2
American Bible Society released a report
recently showing two things: Bible reading in
America has dramatically decreased; people
who read their Bibles experience significant
hope in their lives.
When we read the Bible daily, it reminds
us of how God has worked in
ages past
and what He will do for us in years to
come.
Think back over your life and remember
how God led you in times of indecision,
moved you forward when you had stalled,
protected you when in danger, comforted
you during days of grief, and helped you
in times of need.
During
times of difficulty, remember all
God did for you in the past. Remembering
His character and all He has done for you
encourages and strengthens you.
When you combine daily Bible
study
with constant thanksgiving, you find
yourself developing an unbeatable
attitude.
"O God our Help in ages past,
our Hope for years to come, be
Thou our Guide while life shall
last, and our eternal Home."
Isaac Watts
