I lift up my eyes to the mountains— where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
-The Bible
Have you ever looked up into the sky and felt exhilaration? It’s as if a rush of fresh energy fills your body.
When trouble comes, we were made to look for the Lord.
We are not sheltered from pain, but we can go to the one who relieves our pain. Only God can give us just what we need. He made us!
Look for Him. He’s already found you.

when it hurts 
Yes, indeed I have experienced that exhilarating feeling many times. It gives you that special edge to keep on going.
God is good to us, even when life is rough.
