Encouraging Word

Thank you Lord for being there for us even if it doesn’t feel like it.

At those moments I know in my heart you are carrying us through every step we take in life.
"I will be your God throughout your lifetime-- until your hair is white with age. I made you, and I will care for you. I will carry you along and save you."
Isaiah 46:4
Dear Friends,
When our kids were young, they often would experience ear infections. Until we got them to the doctor, I could not do much to stop the pain. The only thing I could do was to pick them up and carry them around the house with me until they eventually fell asleep in my arms.
Our relationship with the Lord is often like that. God may not be able to take away the pain immediately, but He does say that He will pick us up and carry us until the pain goes away.
"I will be your God throughout your lifetime-- until your hair is white with age. I made you, and I will care for you. I will carry you along and save you." (Isaiah 46:4 NLT)
I am finding that the older I become, the more I need God to carry me. The challenges of life can become heavy. I also realize I need a Savior every day not just some days.
How are you doing managing life? Do you need a Savior to carry you?
Aren't you glad to know that God has promised to carry you, not only today, but throughout your whole life?
Here's for a week resting in His arms.
Pastor Mark
