Saved by His unfailing love!

109:26 Psalm “Help me, LORD my God; save me according to your unfailing love.” (NIV)

This Psalm section is sometimes labeled as ‘Song of the Slandered’ as a subheading in a few translations of the Bible. It speaks to the feelings that we have when it seems like the whole world is speaking against us. It shows the feelings we experience when nothing seems to be going right in our lives. Many of us can relate to this Psalm… all too well. We don’t want to go through that again. Yet, it seems that “Help me” is the start of most of our prayers. God is our refuge and our strength. We know that we can turn to Him. We know that He will save us. We know that He shows us His unfailing love. So, never give up. Always trust in Him. He will provide… from His abundance of grace, mercy, and love!

PLEASE provide this verse to your friends or family who need His help…who need His healing…who need His love. Ask if they are feeling a bit overwhelmed…with grief… with debt… with guilt… with pain… with life. Ask if you can pray for them or if you can help them in any way. We are not called to an easy life. We are called to be light and hope and healing. Sometimes that means we help people out of messy, dirty, and uncomfortable situations as we show them the love of Christ. He will help you… He will guide you to be a blessing to those in such great need. Then, Take Time For God’s Word© throughout each day and always when you see people who need ‘help’, then recall this verse as “109:26” and seek His guidance in knowing how you can help those in need. Usually, when we think of the word ‘help’ we think of ‘911’… a number to call when you need help. OR, we think of the letters S-O-S or some of us older readers my know it as ‘dot-dot-dot-dash-dash-dash-dot-dot-dot’ (Morse code). Now, you can add 10-9-26 (109:26) to that list. Now you can KNOW that you can call on God for HELP anytime, anywhere, no phone needed, no telegraph or signal required… just an honest, heart-felt cry or prayer for HELP. He will hear. He will respond. He will provide…ALWAYS!

Each month in our prayer cycle, we lift up in prayer all of the Sunday School teachers and we ask that God will give them a special blessing for their ministry in sharing the Good News. Whether they are teaching the preschool kids or the older adults or anyone in between, we offer our thanks to God for their time, their insights, their love, and their dedication to teaching God’s love to others. If you have served (or are serving) in that role, THANK YOU! You do make a difference in people’s lives. You may not always see immediate results, but you do have a impact that reaches into eternity. Let us all support them. Let us encourage them. Let us be a blessing to them as they are a blessing to others. Stay blessed in ALL ways and ALWAYS. Pass it on to those who need HELP and share His unfailing love with them!
