Peace Day 44
1 I will lift up
my eyes to the hills— From whence comes my help? 2 My help comes
from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth. 3 He will not allow your
foot to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber.
Psalm
121:1-3
During our lowest moments or when seeking strength to face
challenges, we choose how we will respond to our emotions. Just as “beauty is
in the eye of the beholder,” we have the opportunity to choose how we will
perceive and respond to mountains in our lives. Do we focus on the challenging
terrain that can discourage us and weigh down our hearts, or do we set our eyes
to where we may find strength?
Let us fix our eyes on God. The Creator of Heaven and Earth
is more powerful and grander than any trial or situation that we may encounter.
We may be shaken by our temporary problems, but He is a timeless God. He is a
God who was, is, and will be. Therefore, we do not have to worry about how to
deal with tomorrow. He will be with us then, just as He is now.
Whether in the valleys of our situations or down on our knees
with nowhere to look but up, let us choose to gaze upon our higher power and
not on our challenges. When we focus on God, we discover that He is taller and
higher than any mountain we will ever face.
