Daily Devotions: My Deliverer

OK!Psalm 70:5 "But as for me, I am poor and needy; please hurry to my aid, O God. You are my helper and my savior; O Lord, do not delay.

Isn't it amazing how much God helps us if we just ask, if we just open the door as He stands there and knocks (Rev. 3:20). He is always there and calls us His children; those who believe in Him. Don't we also help our kids as they cry out to us in need and reach for our embrace and support? It is a sweet offer the Lord gives; His peace, help and salvation to all who accept. Not just the few, certain kinds, but to all who accept and call Him their savior and king. He wants what is best for His children. Thankfully He's patiently guiding us in this journey of faith or even in a journey of question as we are open and honest with Him; seeking His help and acknowledging our need.

Reflection: How much can we help others and bless the Lord today and this week? I am sure there are many ideas going through your mind right now. Take action and serve someone in their need, or lend a hand to your kids when they are in need and see God's hand upon you in the process. Ask Him to help you and allow you to help others too. Realize too that when we notice our need and poverty, there is hope. When we see our flaws and seek His help, there comes healing, joy and peace. When we fear the Lord it is the beginning of wisdom.

Prayer: God I thank you for all of your help and your ultimate sacrifice and salvation. You are the answer to my every need and I love you and need you desperately. Help me to rely upon you always and not myself or others. Let your will be done in my life and the lives of my kids, family and friends. Thank you that in our need and poverty, you bring forth provision and blessing, for you are worthy and kind and a wonderful father.

Shopping Ideas: Needing a baby shower gift, unique baby gift, cute baby baskets, baby slings, or other sweet gifts for baby? You can be sure that you will findpersonalized and handmade baby gifts to be at the top of every mom-to-be's wish list.
