Have you ever
begged the Lord for help? I’m not talking about, “Oh Lord, I really want a car
right now; please help me get one,” or “Dear Lord, I need help trying to find a
job.” Please, think not that I am belittling prayers such as these, for the
Lord should be involved in every aspect of our lives. Instead, I am speaking of
body on the ground, face planted in the floor, covered in tears, really begging
for mercy—begging for help.
Have you ever found yourself
completely helpless in a situation where death’s sting may seem as sweet as
honey? Have you ever experienced Christ the Healer, the Rescuer, the Protector,
the One True Rock?
For some, physical pain may have
brought you such torment…nowhere to turn but God. For others, emotional turmoil
brings them to their knees. And still, for some, anxiety may lead them down the
path of anguish and fear.
Call on the Lord in your time of need.
