Some people call God a crutch. They think that only the weak need God. Only the unintelligent rely on a God that they can’t see or touch.
Is a crutch a bad thing? Your leg is broken and you can’t walk. What do you do? You get a set of crutches so that you can get around. The crutches are your source of stability and mobility. I think it would be silly for me to sit at home with my broken leg and not avail of that set of crutches… I am better off with the crutches!
I guess what I’m getting at is that, in myself, I am weak. I will admit that. I am broken. I am flawed. I am sinful. I am fearful. The list goes on.
I will state it boldly that I NEED GOD! I can’t make it without Him. I don’t want to live life without Him. So if you think I’m weak because of that, so be it. I need this crutch. I need Him to walk with me through this journey called life. (Sometimes, I need Him to carry me!) I need His support. I need the strength He provides.
There’s an old chorus that says:
“I don’t know what I would do
I don’t know what I would do
I don’t know what I would do
Without the Lord
When I look around and see
All that He has done for me
I don’t know what I would do
Without the Lord”
And frankly, that’s exactly how I feel!
Have a wonderful day! God bless you!
