“I look up to the mountains—does my help come from there? My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth!” (Psalm 121:1-2 NLT)
How do you climb a mountain? Do you look up at the steep peak? Or do you look down at your feet? The best way to conquer a mountain is to listen to your guide and focus on your next few steps. If you look too far ahead, you are liable to stumble and get injured.
Sometimes, we keep staring at a problem, imagining that if we focus long enough on it, we will have a solution. This merely makes us more apprehensive, frustrated, and exhausted. Instead, if we rely on our Lord to guide us, He will instruct us on our next step, and then the next, and so on. Our Guide is capable--He is always attentive, protective, and dependable.
“The LORD keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever.” (Psalm 121:8 NLT)
