Verse of the week -- Psalm 37:23-24

As a toddler begins to walk they grip tightly to the two hands that steady them and keep them moving forward. As they gain greater confidence and stability they continue to keep that vice like grip with just one hand. Now and then, they totter, they lose their footing, they slip, and almost fall. The hand holds fast. Their loving parent keeps them from completely falling to the ground.

That's my daily walk with Christ. He holds me tight with that firm hand. As I walk along side Him there are repeated times that I trip and almost fall. He holds me tight and prevents me from falling headlong into disaster (sometimes of my own making). What a precious, deep love He has for me. So caring and tender. Psalm 37 paints this picture beautifully, "The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand."


So grateful for this promise to walk this week hand-in-hand with my Savior.

The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.
