Higher than I

"when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I." Psalm 61:2 

One of my greatest comforts in life, is being able to look up to One Who is so much greater and more powerful than me - Someone who sees all, knows all and has everything in control. I recently noticed a friends "religious" status on facebook that said "I believe in myself." It must be so limiting to never be able to look past what you know and can perceive of your own mind and body. It must be really frightening, never being able to rest your mind in a trustworthy God when things are out of control, or ask for strength from above when too weak to go forward. Human beings have so many limitations, and would already be completely powerless outside of God. Therefore, in all my short-comings and limitations, I am so thankful that when I am overwhelmed and faint in heart, I am able to be directed and led to Someone Who is so much greater than anything I am. Alone I am nothing: With Christ I have everything. May we take the focus off our limited selves and seek the One Who is Above.
