Help!!

Have you ever been in your house, car or outside and it felt like everything around you was caving in? The pressure inside of you was building and building to the point of total meltdown. Then all of a sudden out of nowhere you opened your mouth and out came the word HELP as loud as it could come out. Well I've done it many times. And I'm sure I will do it many times to come. There just becomes times in our lives when it feels like things are out of control, everything is going downhill, and we can't stop it or we don't know how to stop it. We look around, to see what we can grab onto. Something that we can lean on or cushion the fall. Only not to find anything. Then to find out we've been looking in the wrong places. Psalm 121 is a great reminder where our help comes from. Instead of looking around here on earth, we need to look up to the Creator of heaven and earth. He loves us ans is waiting to help us. So go ahead and let out that big scream for help, but then look to God and let Him give you the help that you need.
Psalm 121 -
1 I raise my eyes toward the mountains.
Where will my help come from?

2 My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

3 He will not allow your foot to slip;
your Protector will not slumber.

4 Indeed, the Protector of Israel
does not slumber or sleep.

5 The LORD protects you;
the LORD is a shelter right by your side.

6 The sun will not strike you by day,
or the moon by night.

7 The LORD will protect you from all harm;
He will protect your life.

8 The LORD will protect your coming and going
both now and forever.
