Look Up
“I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord,
which made heaven and earth”
(Psalm 121:1-2)
The story is told of a preacher visiting an old feudal castle in England, so old that one of its towers dated back to the days of King John (1167-1216). When the preacher went down to breakfast, he found the young owner of the castle with his family and servants, assembled for morning prayer conducted by the head of the family.
As the visitor lifted his eyes, he noticed overhead a massive beam that spanned the grand old hall and bore in old English script the following inscription:
That house shall be preserved
And never shall decay,
Where the Almighty God,
Is worshipped day by day.
A.D. 1558
For hundreds of years the people of that old castle turned their faces toward God at the beginning of each day. How about you? Do you look up each morning and find your strength and joy in the only true source of blessing?
