"And I give them eternal life,
and they shall never perish;
neither shall anyone snatch
them out of My hand."
John 10:
28
The grip of fear reaches out for each of us.
We’re living in a dangerous world, filled with
medical emergencies, family crises, global
instability, and threatening situations.
The grip of grace also reaches out for each of us.
We find safety in the protecting, guiding, and the
providing hands of Jesus, still scarred from the
wounding nails.
Psalm 18:35 says, “Your right hand has held me
up.” Isaiah said, “In the shadow of His hand He
has hidden me” (Isaiah 49:2). Even Jesus, in the
moment of incredible pain, prayed, “Father, ‘into
Your
hands I commit My spirit’” (Luke 23:46).
When you face times of fear, remember
you’re
in the hands of Him who stilled the storms. God
will give you the strength to be courageous and
persevere.
Though you may sometimes fall, you
will not “be utterly cast down;
for the
Lord upholds you with His powerful
hand”
(Psalm 37:24).
"Put your hand in the hand of the
Man who stilled the water. Put your
hand in the hand of the Man who
calmed the sea."
