He Will Not Fall
The
LORD makes firm the steps of the one who delights in him; though he may
stumble, he will not fall, for the LORD upholds him with his hand.
I
was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or
their children begging bread. They are always generous and lend freely; their
children will be a blessing.
Psalm 37:23-26
Are
you holding on by your fingernails, or is He holding you in His hand? It is all
a matter of trust.
When
troubles come we will not be able to handle them, and we may even question our
faith. The best thing to do is say a prayer and make the leap of faith that you
are in His hands, and that He will take care of you.
If
you are having trouble holding on to your faith, remember it is up to God to
support you with His mighty hand.
In
tough times we become so preoccupied with our role of “clinging to God” that we
forget about his promised protection. It is not our fingernails that sustain us, it is His loving, upholding hand.
No one is more secure than the one who is held in God’s hand.
