Hope for the Helpless
Text: Psalm 130
Sub- Texts: Genesis 3:8-15 & Mark 3:20-35
The abiding image from the news this week was the dairy farmer who was winched to safety by a helicopter! Several hours before, he was moving his cows to safety in the dark when he was swept 1 kilometre down a flooded river before he was able to grab onto a tree in the middle of the raging torrent.

I wondered to myself – did he pray as he got swept away? Did he pray as he clung to the tree? Did he pray something along the lines of the Psalmist in Psalm 130:
“Out of the depths I cry to you O Lord…..” (v1)
