Jenny’s favorite things…

Of all the incredible descriptions in the Bible of who our God is and what He does for us, there is one that I will forever remember as my favorite characteristic of God. Psalm 73:23-“Yet I am always with you; You hold my right hand.” Throughout our lives different situations arise bringing fear, confusion or laughter, but I’m so thankful that God promises to hold our hand through the midst of it all! Holding someone’s hand is a not only a sweet reminder that you are there and you care for someone, but also can be for safety! Isaiah 41:13-“ For I, the Lord your God, hold your right hand and say to you: Do not fear, I will help you.” When a mother holds her child’s hand to cross the street it is for his safety. She would never ask her child to cross the street by himself to get to where he needs to be, so she holds his hand and leads him herself, walking right beside him! It is the same way with our God!! So many times we are afraid of the road before us, or afraid of an unexpected collision. But, He never said we’d have to walk alone! He holds our hand, leading us to the “other side”, exactly where He wants us to be! Not only for safety, but holding someone’s hand is a sweet reminder that you are there and that you care for them. One of the sweetest things about our God is that He promises to never leave us! Yet I am ALWAYS with you; (ps 73:23) There WILL be times you are lonely. There WILL be times when you are so afraid of the road before you… But Praise God He holds our hand leading us through it all! Isaiah 42:6-“I, the Lord, have called you for a righteous purpose, and I will hold you by your hand…”
