Psalm 86:1-7

Psalm 86:1-7
New International Version (NIV)

  We are not as independent as we like to think we are.
  It's easy to buy into this, especially in today's world.  It's easy to start believing that we can make it on our own, that we don't need other people, that we're just fine.
  But then life happens, and we recognize that we are not able to make it through everything.  We realize that our own strength is too weak, that we don't know the answers, that we are limited.  At these times, we turn to God, because his strength is sufficient for all of our weakness.  His wisdom is enough, his love and mercy is enough, and he wants us to endure through the challenges in our lives.  He wants us to emerge from the valley into the light, and he will walk with us every step of the way as we wander that path.

May you trust in God's goodness and mercy
