Psalm 145:14 KJV, “The
Lord upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth all those that be bowed down.” NLT, “The
Lord helps the fallen and lifts those bent beneath their loads.”
Sometimes our burdens
seem more than we can bear and we wonder how we can go on. David stands at this
bleak intersection of life’s road and meditates on the Lord, the great burden
bearer.
I like the words, “The
Lord upholds you.” The word, upholds means to give support to and to lift up. God
is always ready to lift you up and bear your burden. The best way to do this is
to sing the songs about lifting. As you sing, you will feel something lifting
inside of you.
SONG: HE LIFTED ME
From the sinking sand He lifted me,
With tender hand He lifted me,
From shades of night to planes of light,
O praise His name, He lifted me!
(Charles Hutchinson Gabriel, Sing His Praise)
