ON MY SIDE

READ:
we get the true picture of what this line means - and what Gabby meant. The psalmist wrote, "I called on the Lord in distress: the Lord answered me and set me in a broad place. The Lord answered me and set me in a broad place. The Lord is on my side: I will not fear."
Another version translates verse 6 as "The Lord is with me" (NIV). It's the idea that when trouble comes into our lives, God, who is full of mercy and love (which "endures forever," v.4) will always be attentive to us and provide the protection we need.
We can learn from this heroic Olympic champion. When the economy falters and our finances can't keep up, listen to Gabby: "God will never fail you." When a relationship we cherished falls apart; indeed, no matter what our situation, as Christ-followers we know where to find help. "The Lord is on my side" - Dave Brano
Be still my soul - the Lord is on thy side!
Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain;
Leave to thy God to order and provide-
In every change He faithful will remain - von Schlegel

In the midst of every trial, God is on our side.

KEEP YOURSELF HUMBLE

Several years ago, I was on a visit to a parish of our church in Ilesha (a town in southwest Nigeria) on the same day that a Bible Study was to take place. Because I wanted to be blessed, I sat down in the congregation waiting for the Bible study teacher to commence the lesson for the day. However, an overzealous...More
