God Is Our Strength

“The LORD upholds all those who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down.” Psalm 145:14 NIV
The last two days have been a bit overwhelming for me and this verse along with Psalm 46:1 NIV “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” have upheld me.
Sometimes my life can seem to be a bit overwhelming. There seems to be so much to deal with and when it all seems to come at once or within a short time it especially gets to me.
What a promise there is in these verses. Our God, who knows everything about us, sees when we fall and will “uphold us”. He will also “lift up those who are bowed down”. He understands when we feel that there is just so much to cope with and He promises to help us survive the added things that seem to threaten to overwhelm us. The second verse promises that He will always be there in times of trouble and no matter what happens or how bad it, God will give us strength and refuge when our temptation is to just give up
God understands and He cares about each and every one of His children.
