Help Is On The Way (Part 2 of 2)

Psalm 121
Have you ever needed help? I remember as a college student, I needed some assistance with my grades. I have a little bit of dyslexia. Sometimes I have some trouble reading, writing and comprehending.

But I was killing it in the lab thanks to my doctor roommate.

I remember thinking, "I hope we don't break up before the end of the semester because I'm in trouble if we do, I'm toast."
Have you ever needed some help? I learned that by relying on someone else, I could get the ball across the goal line. Sometimes we look at asking for help as a sign of weakness. But when we read the scripture, the Bible actually tells us that relying on someone else is a sign of w ...
