Psalm 121:2 (NKJV) 2 My help comes from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.
About a month ago, I decided to ride a scooter with my grand-kids, who are 12 & 10 years old. They had theirs and I had one of my own too.
We were having a grand time and they couldn’t believe their Grandmommy was scooter riding alongside them.
I kept up pretty good and was happy to be out there with them.
We were almost back to our yard when I got a little too close to the edge of the road and hit the soft dirt. In slow motion I went over the top of the handle bars and landed on the ground.
My grandson was the nearest to me and asked if I was alright. My granddaughter, a little up ahead, turned back and shouted, “Oh no, Grandmommy, are you alright”?!
I got up so fast, I didn’t care if I had broken a bone or not. I didn’t care if I was bleeding or not. I just got up very quickly and said, “let’s get home”. I didn’t want anyone to see me.
It was mostly my pride that was hurt and I didn’t feel anything else until the next day, as you can imagine.
Needless to say, PRIDE is a funny thing. We could be dying and not want anyone to know we’re hurting, physically, emotionally or in any other way.
If you are struggling or in pain over anything, please get help today. Don’t be afraid to say something. When we need help, ask the Lord.
Leave dumb old pride by the side of the road and get the help we need.
