Just me trying to be honest with God.

“If you ever need a helping hand you'll find one at the end of your arm” Yiddish Proverb

“Be our arm every morning…” Is.33.2 ESV

Whatever we do, let us do it wholeheartedly and with all our might. And, whatever task we undertake, let us trust the Lord for strength as we do it. What I mean is that we may ask for God’s help just as we ask anyone for a helping hand. The testimony of God’s people assures us that no task is too great, even more amazing to me, no task is too small that God will not honor our request for help. We may wonder, would the All Mighty lend His might to help me find my glasses? To answer that, just ask yourself if you would deny a friend your help if they asked the same of you. Jesus has already told us that if we, being the evil sort we are, give assistance to others when they ask, how much more should we expect God to lend us His helping hand when we ask it of Him no matter--how great or small. 1/3/2009 ts
