Stepping Forward

I was reading a book this morning and one of the short stories in it really struck me. In a good way!! It was talking about how when we get to a point in our life that we know we cannot do it alone, we call on God. He is there watching us, but He will only come and help if we ask Him. Those times we try to do it alone and we don't call out to Him are the times we will fall because there is no possible way to go any farther without God's help. The little boy in the story was trying to climb up a huge slide. When he got half way up the ladder he knew that he couldn't go any farther without his dad. Dad, Father, God, we cannot take another step without you. Come, take us forward in your arms!
