Psalm 61:2 From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
As a little boy one day, I ran back and forth behind the crowd. The parade was coming, and I really wanted to have a good spot to watch it from. Everyone was so much taller than I was. Wherever I went, somebody was standing in front of me. In frustration, I started to cry. Suddenly, two strong hands lifted me up and placed me on shoulders high up above the mass of people. From the vantage point of the stranger's shoulders, the entire parade was easy to see.
Sometimes we need a boost. Problems loom too large, and we can't see our way around them. Pressures build up, and we don't feel big enough to cope with them. God sees all that and He is ready to lift us up; to give us a new vantage point. Reach up to the Lord, and He will lead you to Himself, a rock which is higher than any problem we might have. The best part, just reach up a little. He'll reach down a lot.
