Psalm 121:1-4, “I will lift up eyes to the mountains, from whence shall may help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to slip; He who keeps you will not slumber. Behold He who keeps Israel will neither slumber or sleep.” Do you know the difference from help wanted and help needed? There are times when working at a job we have been short staffed. These times often bring stress and confusion. Sitting here this morning, I thought about when you see a help wanted sign. You may inquiry about what the job entails. What it pays and if it is a good fit. The employer on the other hand is also evaluating whether you are the person to fill the position. I took a step back this morning and thought about what this Psalm was saying. I realized that there is a difference between wanting something and needing something. Wanting something doesn’t come with a commitment. If you don’t get it, you make do with what you have. But when we need something, we commit to finding a way to get it. As I thought more on this scripture I realized when we lift up our eyes to the Lord for help is it because of the need for God in our life or is it something we can do without. Are we coming to Him with the understanding that He made the heavens and the earth? That He will not allow our feet to stumble, if we seek Him is it because of the need we have within us to do His will, to seek His face, to stand before Him knowing we can’t make do without Him? Ask yourself, do I want God in my life, or do I need Him in my life? I know that I need God in my life every day!
