" . . . And [when they] are at their wits' end. Then they cry out to the LORD in their trouble, and He brings them out of their distresses."
My scripture readings today were rife with examples of people--some faithful and some unfaithful--crying out to God, and being given re-
lief. In Daniel, the three young men are saved from the fire. In 1 Kings, the wicked King Ahab is spared for a while (because he actually humbled himself).
. . . And here (above), in Psalm 107, we see numerous accounts of how merciful God is, when sinners simply yell up to heaven, for help. How true it is, that we fallen creatures have to be brought to our "wits' end" before we look to the Only One (Jesus) who can save us. Let us cry out to God for help today.
[Puritan quote of the day: "Jesus Christ never thinks He has fully heal-
ed us, till He has drawn His own beautiful image upon us." --Thomas Watson, in his sermon entitled, "The Soul's Malady and Cure"]
