Lean On Me


”Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you.”  1 Peter 5:7


Bill Withers received his second gold disc for his lyrics to “Lean on Me” in 1972.  Over three million copies were sold and the track went to number one the week of July 8th, 1972.  (You can “Google” Bill Withers to read the lyrics.)  In 2007, “Lean on Me” was added to the Grammy Hall of Fame.  “Lean on Me” has been recorded by a number of artists and is still popular today.  (I heard it on a local radio station last week.)

 
As Bill Withers lyrics state, we all need someone to lean on.  Perhaps this universal need has contributed to this song’s popularity.  As I cautiously walk in winter’s ice and snow, I feel more secure when my husband reaches out in support with his arm.  Each of us can reach out with support, love, and care to those who need a helping hand.
 

Most of all, we need to remember that our loving Father is always available to each of us whenever we ask for his support and care.  It is up to us to seek his guidance and to trust in his loving care.
 

Prayer: Heavenly Father, we are grateful for your unconditional love and support.  We appreciate your loving care each day.  Help us to remember that you are always with us.  Amen.
