I look back in my life and today am so thankful. For the times I was young and didn't know better. (Thank God I had a praying father and more importantly a Heavenly Father!) I really could have gotten into some trouble back then. But through my earthly fathers' prayers, I was safe in my Heavenly Father's hands until the day I got serious in the Lord, and then going forth.
Now I look towards the future with all of its wickedness and more that is sure to come and know that I can continue to trust In God to take care of me. For you see, He holds me in His hands.
And if you are a believer, He holds you as well. How do we know that?
16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palm of my hands; thy walls are continually before me. Isaiah 49:16
Our God has mighty big hands. If you want a handout from Him, He is there to provide it which is much better than any handout we have here on earth. For I believe that His handouts are more like hand-ups.
Don't get me wrong, we sometimes need those handouts from various places to live here on earth. And thank the Lord when people need them, they can be had. But one day, the Lord will reach down from heaven and take us by the hand and lead us up where life is what we long for today and as long as we live on this earth.
So, while the future looks pretty bleak to many people, we as believers know that our end is sure because it is built on the solid Rock of Jesus Christ. Which never ends.
And for that we can rejoice and be thankful!
Thanks for coming by today, Friends. Have a glorious and blessed day in Jesus!
