It is wonderful to live near people whom you can ask to help you do things you cannot do by yourself. We have one another to lean on and help out in those difficult times. How often do we become frustrated trying to do things by ourselves and on our own? It is easy to get caught in the trap of not wanting to bother other people, but God invites us to humble ourselves before Him so that He can give us a hand to accomplish what we are attempting to do. Humility is knowing we cannot succeed on our own, we need the help of the Lord every day of our lives. (1 Peter 5:6-7 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 7. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.) The Holy Spirit, our helper, invites us to lean on Him at all times for help. He has the strength to equip us for what we are facing today. Don’t try to go through today without God’s assistance, it will only lead to frustration and defeat. Live the joyful life God intended for you by allowing God’s overcoming power to lead and assist you in everything you do today. When the day comes to an end, see how much better day you have experienced by leaning on the Lord for strength and help. Pastor Don [image: image.png]
