My Take On Essa Einai

?אֶשָּׂא עֵינַי אֶל הֶהָרִים - מֵאַיִן יָבֹא עֶזְרִי

.עֶזְרִי מֵעִם יְהוָה - עֹשֵׂה שָׁמַיִם וָאָרֶץ

"I will lift my eyes to the mountains - from where (literally, from no where) will my help come? My help comes from G-d, creator of heaven and earth."

Dovid HaMelech starts off talking about far away things; the future ("I will lift my eyes"), and mountain tops. Then he switches to present tense ("my help comes from G-d, creator of heaven and earth").

If all one does is look up to far away future hard times wondering if anyone will be there for him/her, the result may well be that when the tough future arrives he/she will experience a feeling of "from where will my help come?" - hopelessness. The solution to this problem is to be proactive and choose to live in the present with a constant - through good and bad times - sense that at every moment help comes from G-d who is consistently creating the atmosphere and circumstances (heaven and earth) that surround us.
