I lift my eyes up to the mountains- where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. Psalm 121:1-2
As I am surrounded by the Andes Mountains, this verse comes to my mind daily. I look up to mountains from every window in my home and from the teacher’s lounge at my school, wondering at the greatness of God. The mountains are reminders of God’s mighty hand that is always extended to help us when we look to Him, and I have seen God helping me in various ways.
First, God has been helping me with my Spanish and it is such a blessing to communicate with the locals. Secondly, God has been giving me teaching ideas for my numerous “Oh, I’m teaching without a heads-up!” moments. Lastly, God has been helping me with navigation here. I’ve learned to use public transportation and walk the highways and narrowest alleys all over my city without getting lost.
Whether you see mountains often or not, may you be reminded of God’s faithfulness. He who made the mountains is more than capable of helping us in our biggest and our smallest tasks, and He wants us to ask for help. How is God helping you in the tasks He has given you?
Bonus: This song has been a favorite of mine recently, and it begins with Psalm 121:1-2. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/TfiYWaeAcRw?si=goMcGZW-GA0Gd7WN
