Day 4Four - Psalm 107

One of the most frustrating things for me to hear from a brother or sister in Christ is, "I'm just sitting here, waiting for the Lord to do something. He's knows I need help so I'm just gonna wait." -- Ugh. [Don't get me wrong, there are times to wait on the Lord.] However, my frustration lies with people's attitudes and not realizing God's trying to help them. This Psalm is a prime example of God helping his people AND his people actually needing to doing something in the process. Three key words (in verses 7 & 14) reads, "(God) led them." -- LED is an action word. This means that these people who were asking God for help actually had to GET UP and doing something. God didn't make their legs walk-- the people made their own legs walk. It required an action on their part to engage God's help... and you know what? God did help them. So next time you're "waiting for God", get up and walk! Engage God's help with action and just see where that leads.
