GOD MAKES A WAY

There are many situations in life when we feel that we are stuck and that there is
no way out, that we are blocked between walls on all four sides. In such
situations, where does our help come from? Does it come from a close friend
or a relative or maybe even your parents? Supposing they are helpless
themselves and cannot help you, then where will your help come from?

There is only one person who can help you and that is God.

God can do wonders and miracles. He saves and gives life. He is the only
true help in times of trouble.

How can we be sure that God will help us? All of us have mothers who gave
birth to us and took care of us when we were weak or feeble. They have always been there beside us when we needed them and wanted their help. In the same way, God created each one of us. God is always there to help us. Even in times of our deepest troubles, He will be there to show us the way and guide us out of our trouble.

God helps everyone when they call upon His name in truth. Yes, everyone!
There are no exceptions such as whom, when and where. If we call upon God in
truth and in faith, God will definitely hear our cry for help. The only condition is that we have to believe in God and trust in His word.

Let me give you an example:

This story tells about a mountain climber who wanted to climb the highest
mountain. He began his adventure after many years of training, but since he
wanted the glory for himself he decided to climb the mountain alone.

The night was like a heavy blanket in the heights of the mountain and the man could not
see anything. All was black, there was zero visibility as the moon and
stars were covered by clouds.

As he was climbing close to the top of the mountain, he
slipped and fell, falling at a great speed. The climber could
only see black spots as he went down, and the terrible sensation of being
sucked by gravity.

He kept falling....and in those moments of great fear, all the good and bad episodes of his life passed through his mind. He was now thinking about how
close he was to death, when all of a sudden, he felt the rope that was tied to his
waist, pull him very hard.

His body was hanging in the air with only the rope holding him and in that
moment of stillness, he had no other choice but to scream - "HELP ME GOD!"

All of a sudden, a deep voice from the sky answered:

"What do you want me to do?"

The man pleaded, "Save me, God"

The voice replied, "Do you really think that I can save you?"

In desperation, the man said, "Of course, I believe that you can."

The voice then said, "Then cut the rope tied to your waist."

The man was shocked. He thought about it but couldn't bring himself to trust what he could not see. He decided to hold onto the rope with all his strength.

The rescue team later said that they found the frozen body of the climber. His
body was hanging from a rope. His hands were holding tight to it......ONLY 10 FEET
AWAY FROM THE GROUND!

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own
understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your
paths. - Proverbs 3:5-6

I believe this scripture can be useful in any trial in life,
because if you trust in the Lord, He will lead and guide you.
