By My Side

Last year, when I was at school, I was injured while playing football.

After they had moved me off the field and onto the sideline, our team’s trainer began to examine me. My mum was on the other side of the field in the stands, watching the entire event.

I eventually told the trainer that I needed to call my mum and tell her to come over to where I was being treated. As soon as she received the call, she and my sister ran to my side.

The Bible says that when we pray to the Lord, no matter what the reason is, he will always give us an answer.

Just like my mum did for me, God will help us if we ask.

The Lord will always give refuge, help and strength to those who need and request it.

Prayer: Dear Lord, help us to turn to you when we are in need and remember that you love us always. Thank you for your Son, Jesus. In his name we pray. Amen
