Hand to wrist; not hand in hand Teague Bible Church 4/16/2024
I was saved at 19 years old. The one hesitation I had was thinking that I would not be able hold onto the love God was about to show me. It did not take long to realize my thinking was backwards. It is not about my strength to hold onto His hand, but His ability to hold onto my hand. When my kids were little I never held my kid’s hands in a way of partnership; in a way they could let go. I put my large hand around their wrist. I could even lift them off the ground if needed. “ Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless, with great joy, to the only God and Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.” Jude 24. “ The steps of a man are established by the Lord, and He delights in his way. When he falls, he will not be hurled headlong, because the Lord is the One who holds his hand.” Psalms 37:23-24. “My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to slip; He who keeps you will not slumber.” Psalms 121:2-3. My kids told me once that it hurt sometimes when a car got close and I would squeeze their tiny hands harder. I told them it would have been without any discomfort at all,,,, if they had not pulled so hard against my protection. Life is hard enough; let us stop pulling so hard against the Lord. Jimmy Petty
