April 1, 2004	Read Psalm 121
I lift up my eyes to the hills – from where will my help come?  My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
HELP COMES FROM THE LORD This Psalm is a Psalm of confession and assurance. It is a pilgrimage song. It tells how the Lord will accept the faithful who give glory unto his name. God always takes care of us and watches over us, no matter what. You should confess that you trust in the Lord, and he will guide and protect you. God gives us great gifts that we should use and be thankful for. We are truly blessed to have been given all these gifts, no questions asked. This Psalm is talking about the assurance that God gives us unfailing protection. This is good thing to know in times of all uncertainties. With a lot of the world at war, it's good to know that there's a higher authority watching out for us. Dear Lord, thank you for giving us gifts which we do not deserve and protection that is a reassurance in unsure times. You are an all powerful and almighty God, and I trust in you completely.
