A Hand for Those Who Fall
My dear son,
When someone falls, my first desire is to reach out a hand. You need not gather enough strength to stand alone before asking for my help. You can lean on your Father's hand.
When someone's shoulders seem weighed down, listen before deciding why. As I lift and care for my children, help one another find the strength to stand again. Let that care shape the way you meet people.
Tonight, tell me freely what help you need. If the day has been peaceful, use a little of that room to pray for someone else. Standing or getting back up, you are my cherished child. Rest comfortably beside me.
With all my love,
Your Father
Psalms 145:14
WEB14The LORD upholds all who fall, and raises up all those who are bowed down.
A short reflection
The psalm praises God as the one who upholds those who fall and raises those who are bowed down.
