From Harm To Hope

Reading: Psalm 121:7–8

Devotional:

These verses don’t mean life will be free from hardship. Instead, they remind us that God’s keeping power covers our whole journey—our coming and going, our past and future, our seen and unseen battles. Even when the path is treacherous, His hand is steady.

Mountain climbers use a buddy system. No one climbs alone—your survival depends on another’s watch. In the same way, God is our ultimate “buddy system.” But He also places us in a church family, a spiritual climbing team, to help each other endure.

Reflection Question: Where in your life do you need to trust more deeply in God’s promise to keep you? Who in your “climbing team” (community) can you lean on for support?

Action Step: Reach out to one person in your church community today—encourage them, pray with them, or simply remind them they’re not climbing alone.
