Daily Devotional: Our Father Knows Best
By Mark Waldrop

Scripture Reading:
Psalm 121:1-2

A Song of Ascents. I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

Reflection:
In times of trouble or uncertainty, it's natural to look for help and guidance. The psalmist, in Psalm 121, expresses this universal need by lifting his eyes to the hills and asking, "From where does my help come?" The answer is profound and reassuring: "My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth."

Our Father knows best, and He is our ultimate source of help and strength. The Creator of the universe is not only powerful but also personally invested in our lives. When we face challenges, we can find peace in knowing that the same God who created the heavens and the earth is the One who helps and sustains us.

This passage encourages us to direct our focus and trust toward God. By acknowledging that our help comes from the Lord, we align ourselves with His wisdom and provision. No matter what we face, we can rest assured that God is with us, guiding and supporting us every step of the way.

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for being our constant source of help and strength. When we face challenges and uncertainties, remind us to lift our eyes to You, knowing that our help comes from the Maker of heaven and earth. Strengthen our faith and trust in Your wisdom and guidance. Thank You for Your unwavering support and love. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Thought for the Day:
In moments of difficulty, remember to lift your eyes to the Lord. Our Father knows best, and He is always ready to help and sustain you. Trust in His wisdom and provision, knowing that the Creator of the universe is your ultimate source of strength and guidance. Let this truth bring you peace and confidence in every situation.
