THE LORD IS HOLDING US

Psalm 37:23-24 The Lord directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the Lord holds them by the hand.

I love the fact that the Lord delights in every detail of our lives.  Maybe there have been days when you've felt like God didn't care one way or the other about what you were going through or having to put up with at work or at home, especially if they're big issues. Or you've thought He can't be bothered with such trivial details like when you've run out of milk or your neighbour's dog keeps barking and driving you mad. We think that's just the things that happen, but God knows about those things.

We're tempted to think we just have to muddle through life on our own and just get on with it when we're struggling.  But that's not so at all. 

God wants us to know that He is actually holding our hand through every moment of every day. Absolutely nothing happens that escapes His caring notice and He's supporting us through it all, He's holding us up.

So don't let's listen to the negative thoughts when the enemy says we're all alone, or God doesn't care about us any more or He's not interested. 

As we start a new week let's read these verses again and remind ourselves that He is holding on to us, even when we stumble. That He's grabbing hold of us tightly and He's really interested in every detail of our lives, both the big stuff and the small stuff, and He's giving us His direction. 

Thank You Lord.
