PSALM 124 OUR HELP

Had He not been on our side.

Psalm 124:6-8 J.P.S.
6 Blessed be the LORD, who did not let us
   be ripped apart by their teeth.
7 we are like a bird escaped from the fowler's trap
   the trap broke and we escaped.
8 Our help is in the name of the LORD
   maker of heaven and earth.

We have come through many dangers, toils and snares

1 Were it not for the LORD, who was on our side....
4.....the waters would have carried us off,
   the torrent would have swept over us;

Thanks to God we escaped like a bird
but children died of cold last week.
Children died of hunger this week.
They did not escape the teeth of cold or hunger.

Every child should receive good healthcare
every child should receive good education,  good accommodation ,
access to clean water, a healthy ample diet, the care and support
of a loving family.

Matthew 25:40 KJV
Inasmuch as ye have done it unto the least of these
my brethren , ye have done it unto me.
Matthew 25:45 KJV
Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to 
one of the least of these, yo did it not unto me.

We are not expected to do much in our own strength.
Our help is in the name of the Lord
maker of heaven and earth.

There are no second class citizens in the body of Christ.
To ensure the good of all children is in the love of God
There should not be any second class healthcare
There should not be any second class education
there should not be any second class accommodation
There should be no hungry children,or cold children
or frightened children or scorned children
or exploited children, or trafficking of children
or adults. .

Let us appreciate that our help is in the name of JESUS
by who's grace we have come this far,
and that we have survived as long as we have
because God has a plan for our life,
