Psalm 120:1

“In my distress I cried unto the Lord, and he heard me.”



O child of God, while you are down trodden and distressed and feeling all is lost, have you stopped, got on your knees and cried unto the Lord? O what a sorry lot we are. We have a Heavenly Father who will comfort us if we only ask. He will hear our prayers. He knows our every need and our every concern. Yet so many times we fail to do the simplest thing. Ask.
Pray without ceasing. Commune with our Lord whenever distressed. But we say “but we are praying, we are communing.” But are we listening? Has He given the answer already but because we are so wrapped up in self pity that we refused to hear. Or is it our own cries are so loud we did not hear?
Go before the Lord with praise and thanksgiving. Praise His name!!! Give God the glory for all. Count your blessings before the Lord. Give Him the praise for all!!! Bring your petitions before Him and wait and listen for His answer.



Praise ye the Lord!!!
