Celebrate Jesus!

“I lift my eyes to the hills, from where will my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.”
Psalm 121:1-2
Have you ever wondered where God is during times when you have been hurt more than words can describe, when your world seems wildly out of control? If you have, you are not alone. We all need to be reminded of God’s presence, the Light that shines even on our darkest days. Consider for a moment the promise of Jesus when he left the old dusty tomb that was darkened by sin; “I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:20) The hills of Jesus’ love for you is a reminder that even in the midst of your most challenging day, the One who died for you; the one who offers you life in abundance, will guide your every step, and will bind the wounds of your heart; “he heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” (Psalm 147) Someone once said that “when God seems distant, that is when he is most near.” Perhaps the beauty of the mountains, of the star-studded sky, the outstretched hand or spoken word of hope at the most opportune time is a reminder of Jesus’ promise; a “Post-it” note from God to let you know you are in the mighty hands of your Savior and those hands will carry you through even the most uncertain of times. Lift your weary eyes to the “hills” of Jesus’ love for you and begin to see the reminders of God’s presence with you, no matter your path and no matter the challenge. You are loved, especially you, especially today by Jesus, who is with you, “from this time on and forevermore.” (Psalm 121:8)
