This past week we spent several days in Asheville, North Carolina, surrounded by beautiful mountains.
The whole time we were there I kept thinking about Psalm 12:1-3, I lift my eyes to the mountains–where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
I’m so thankful I’m not alone on this journey. People can fail us, and life can be hard but we ALWAYS have Jesus.
On my best days, He is with me. On my worst days, He is with me. I am never alone!
As you begin this week remember that your helps comes from God and He is with you every moment of everyday.
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us. Ephesians 3:20
We heard King & Country in concert last year and they were so good. They quote Psalm 121:-3 in this song. I’ve heard it a hundred times but I had never watched the video. It is worth watching!
When confusion’s my companion
And despair holds me for ransom
I will feel no fear
I know that You are near
When I’m caught deep in the valley
With chaos for my company
I’ll find my comfort here
‘Cause I know that You are near
[Chorus:]
My help comes from You
You’re right here, pulling me through
You carry my weakness, my sickness, my brokenness all on Your shoulders
Your shoulders
My help comes from You
You are my rest, my rescue
I don’t have to see to believe that You’re lifting me up on Your shoulders
Your shoulders
You mend what once was shattered
And You turn my tears to laughter
Your forgiveness is my fortress
Oh Your mercy is relentless
[Chorus]
My help is from You
Don’t have to see it to believe it
My help is from you
Don’t have to see it, ‘cause I know, ‘cause I know it’s true
[Chorus]
My help is from You
Don’t have to see it to believe it
My help is from you
Don’t have to see it, ‘cause I know, ‘cause I know it’s true
Have a blessed Sunday!
Beautiful post!
What a beautiful song! Thanks for sharing it.
Thank you. I so needed to remeber that I am RESCUED today. I am so thankful that He is willing to bear whatni cannot.
Thank you for all the words of encouragement you offer daily. They are helping me more than I can say right now. Am an emotional bundle of nerves as I watch my sweet mother-in-law slowly succumb to thyroid cancer. She has been a woman of faith and I struggle with it – maybe fallout from being a nurse and able to “fix things”. Slowly learning to “let go and let God”.
Wow i have heard that song on the radio a dozen times in a week but the video make it so real and powerful. It brought tears to my eyes, we so often forget how powerful our God is . Thanks for sharing that !
Blessings

Beautiful reminder in such a chaotic world and the verse in Ephesians is one of my favorites. God bless you and thank you for the encouragement!
We buried the earthly body of my father in law Friday and we will return to AZ for my brother in law services next Friday.
We know they are with the Lord but mourn their loss.
Alice I’m so sorry. Thankful they are with Jesus.
Blessings,

Thank you Cyndi for your encouragement. I’m like you as far as hearing that song many times but never saw the video until now. WOW!!! What a powerful video. Thank you for sharing it.
Thanks for sharing Cyndi. I loved the words of the song and the video. How true that He is always with us. God bless you.
I am always amazed when the exact message I need to be reminded about is presented so directly. I am feeling anxious about a situation at work tomorrow , and today’s verse reminds me how silly I am being. He is there always. Praise the Lord , ” I will never leave you nor forsake”. That is always the answer that immediately gives comfort and relief.
I’ll pray for you! God’s with you!!
Blessings,
Cyndi
Your firs verse today from
Psalms… Same verse my pastor started his sermon with today. Have you seen War Room? It is very good .
Yes!! We had an early preview back in the spring and it is so good!!
Cyndi
Since the death of my husband in January, this song reveals the truth I’m living. Thank you for sharing this message!
I just love your Sunday’s messages. Thank you so much!
Beautiful! Thanks, Cyndi.
What would we do without God’s up! Beautiful song!!
Blessings
That should say, without God’s help!
Such a beautiful song Cyndi. We all saw War Room last night… so powerful!! I am a huge believer in the power of prayer and this just solidified it even more. We all need our own “War Rooms” . I highly recommend this movie to everyone!! Have a blessed day and glad you got to spend some time in the mountains 😉
Love that movie!!!!
