From where does our help come?


                                                                Psalm 121:1-8
                              I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come?
                           2  My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
                   3  He will not let your foot be moved; he who keeps you will not slumber.
                           4  Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
                    5  The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is your shade on your right hand.
                           6  The sun shall not strike you by day, nor the moon by night.
                           7  The LORD will keep you from all evil; he will keep your life.
    8  The LORD will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore.

The Fall of man


Genesis 3:1-15  Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the LORD God had made.....
 3  ,,,,, but God said, ‘You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.’”
4  But the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. .....
11  ..... He (LORD God) said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?”
12  The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit of the tree, and I ate.”
13  Then the LORD God said to the woman, “What is this that you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
14  The LORD God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, cursed are you above all livestock and above all beasts of the field; on your belly you shall go, and dust you shall eat all the days of your life.
15  I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel.” .....

Joel 2:12-- “Yet even now,” declares the LORD, “return to me with all your heart,..... 13 "and rend your hearts and not your garments.” Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love....
John 10:16  Jesus said:  And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd.
