Getting Up

     Do you have an experience that you fell down on the floor or tripped? I had. Me, my brother, and my mom were going to fetch our dad's bike. It was my turn to ride the bike home. When I started biking away to nearest pathway to get out of the bike parking place, I wasn't looking and my bike went into the sewage path. I fell to the ground, getting a few cuts. But, God saved me from having a head injury because my head landed on grass. Too bad I didn't get back up. I just lay there for a while. My mom also got lots of experiences of falling or tripping. One experience was that she fell from the stairs of her house when she was small. The difference from my fall and her fall was that my mom got up quickly and pretended that nothing happened.
     Like that experience, we might not want to get up and face the situations and problems that are around us. We might feel like that we don't have the power to face these situations in our lives. But, we ask God for help for God has the power to make the weak strong and the ill healthy. We can always rely on God to help us in our problems. Except, we also have to do our part to remove the situations that face us. We have to be brave and stand and up against the problems. If we fall, we have to get up again. So remember, if you encounter a problem in your life, ask God for strength and whenever you fall, get up and face that problem.


Prayer
Lord
     Help me in the situations that are happening in my life. Give me the strength I need to face these problems and let me remember that I can always rely on you. Help me remember Lord to always do my part to remove the situations. Thank you Lord, in Jesus name, I pray, Amen.

He gives strength to the weary
    and increases the power of the weak.

Isaiah 40:29
