NOW IS THE TIME TO HOLD TIGHT THE HAND OF GOD




People come...
People Go.....
People fall in and out of love....
Governments change....
Culture and society is as stable as the waves that crash the shore...
But there is one constant through out history.
The unchanging hand of God.
He beckons us to come and walk with Him.
To place our hand in His and follow His leading.
Not to be concerned with the direction we are headed in...for He knows the way far better than we do, we simply hold tight His hand.

When fear overtakes us, He squeezes our hand to let us know that He is there.

No need to fear.
When burdens weigh us down, He gently lifts us to his chest and carries us until the darkness passes.
When questions and doubts seek to bury us under an avalanche of confusion....He takes us by both hands to steady us and help us to stand.

The unchanging hand of God will never fail if we lay hold of it.
It is not a mental exercise or a theory.

It is a truth older than the world itself.
The unchanging hand of God is driven by a heart of love for His creation.
Gentle enough to stroke the cheek of a newborn babe, and strong enough to send the minions of hell fleeing in every direction. Such are the hands of God.
Whose hand are you holding on to today?
Or are your hands empty and your simply trying to take this journey in your own ability?


This was one of my dad's favorite songs.
Enjoy.
God on you...
