Help from the Lord.

"My help cometh from the Lord, who made heaven and earth." So said the Psalmist, and so may every Christian say. This is sufficient. Some men, with their telescopes, put God far from them; but the Psalmist, with the eye of faith, brings him near. "I will lift up my eyes to the hills, from whence cometh my help." Philosophies and systems, speculations and theories but too often hide our Father's face; while simple faith—the uplifted look of the soul—puts our hand in his, and brings the promised help. Are you afflicted or bereaved? Have you been tempted to doubt your Father's care? Do not fear. Amid all the worlds his hand upholds, you shall not be forgotten. His love is as great as his power. Trust in him, and help will come in time of need.—Methodist Recorder.
