“Many hardships and perplexing circumstances confront the righteous, but the LORD rescues him from them all.”
There was a religious man stranded on a rooftop during a flood. A person in a boat came by to help shouted, “I’ve got room! Let me help you!” The stranded man replied, “No! I’m waiting for Jesus to save me!” Later that day, as the water nearly covered the rooftop, a helicopter flew over. “Grab the ladder! We’re here to help!” The stranded man said, “No! Jesus will save me!” The water rose higher. The man drowned. He met Jesus in heaven and asked, “Jesus! Why didn’t you save me from the flood?” Jesus answered, “I tried! I sent a person in a boat and people in a helicopter!”
You may be experiencing a flood today (or one could be on its way), but have faith that help is on the way. Jesus will rescue you from all your hardships and perplexing circumstances and He will use people around you to do so. Whether it’s your pastor, best friend or co-worker, Jesus will place people in your life to help you in trying times. They may not always come packaged the way you expect, but trust that God knows what He’s doing. Receive God’s help no matter the package and pass it on.
Help is on the way
